Symptom-to-FRU
index
This
index
supports
xSeries
450
servers.
Notes:
1.
Check
the
configuration
before
you
replace
a
FRU.
Configuration
problems
can
cause
false
errors
and
symptoms.
2.
For
IBM
devices
not
supported
by
this
index,
refer
to
the
manual
for
that
device.
3.
Always
start
with
“General
checkout”
on
page
33.
The
Symptom-to-FRU
index
lists
symptoms,
errors,
and
the
possible
causes.
The
most
likely
cause
is
listed
first.
Use
this
Symptom-to-FRU
index
to
help
you
decide
which
FRUs
to
have
available
when
servicing
the
server.
The
left-hand
column
of
the
tables
in
this
index
lists
error
codes
or
messages,
and
the
right-hand
column
lists
one
or
more
suggested
actions
or
FRUs
to
replace.
Note:
Some
tables
have
more
than
two
columns;
in
those
instances,
more
than
one
column
on
the
left
is
required
to
describe
the
error
symptom.
Take
the
action
(or
replace
the
FRU)
suggested
first
in
the
list
of
the
right-hand
column,
then
try
the
server
again
to
see
if
the
problem
has
been
corrected
before
taking
further
action.
Note:
Try
reseating
a
suspected
component
or
reconnecting
a
cable
before
replacing
the
component.
