1

Software

a. Have customer verify that the software is configured

 

(1 of 7)

 

and operating correctly for this processor

 

 

node/system.

 

 

 

b. If no problem is found, continue with next highest

 

 

 

priority item in the list for this SRN.

 

 

 

c. Otherwise, power off this processor node and continue

 

 

 

service at ªStep 0620-017º on page 1-28.

 

 

 

 

 

2

External clock

a. Check to see if a switch clock cable is connected at

 

(2 of 7)

 

switch adapter of this processor node.

 

 

b. If clock cable exists, reseat switch clock cable;

 

 

 

otherwise reseat switch data cable.

 

 

 

c. Run advanced diagnostics on the device ªcss0º and its

 

 

associated switch port.

 

 

d. If diagnostics fail with the previous SRN, check at

 

 

least one other processor node for indication of a

 

 

clock problem. If necessary, run advanced diagnostics

 

 

on this other node, using the device ªcss0º and its

 

 

associated switch port.

 

 

e. If more than one node has a clock problem, go to

 

 

ªStep 0620-013º on page 1-28.

 

 

f. Replace the switch clock cable or switch data cable

 

 

that was just reseated in step 2 above.

 

 

g. Continue service at ªStep 0620-018º on page 1-28.

 

 

 

 

3

Data cable

a. Reseat switch data cable at switch adapter of this

(3 of 7)

 

processor node.

 

b. Run advanced diagnostics on the device ªcss0º and

 

 

its associated switch port.

 

 

c. If diagnostics fail with the previous SRN, replace

 

 

switch data cable.

 

 

d. Continue service at ªStep 0620-018º on page 1-28.

b. Reconnect all cables to the processor node.

 

 

c. Continue service at ªStep 0620-018º on page 1-28.

 

 

Note: Before disconnecting cables or performing service

 

 

actions on an SP-Attached Server, perform Decoupling

 

 

and coupling code for SP-Attached Serversin RS/6000

5

System or I/O planar

a. Run advanced diagnostics on the ªBase Systemº or

(5 of 7)

 

I/O planar. If a problem is detected, use SRN to

 

service.

 

 

b. Replace the system or I/O planar on this processor

 

 

node. Make sure to reinstall all parts and cables.

 

 

c. Reconnect all cables to the processor node.

 

 

d. Continue service at ªStep 0620-018º on page 1-28.
