This ends the procedure.
23. Follow the service procedures for the new SRC. Start with “Starting Point for
All Problems” on page 4.
This ends the procedure.
24. The problem is the multi-adapter bridge. Power off the system or partition.
25. Determine which FRU contains the multi-adapter bridge which controls the
IOP in the DSA by performing the following:
a. Locate the card position table for the frame type that you recorded. Refer
to the “Card Position Tables” on page 282 to locate the card position table
for the frame type that you recorded.
b. Using the multi-adapter bridge number that you recorded, search for the
multi-adapter bridge function number ″F″ in the card position table to
determine the card position of the multi-adapter bridge’s FRU.
26. Is the multi-adapter bridge’s FRU a FRU that you have already exchanged?
No Yes
↓ Call you next level of support.
This ends the procedure.
27. Remove the IOP that you exchanged. You will be reinstalling the original IOP
later in this procedure.
28. Exchange the card multi-adapter bridge’s FRU at the card position that you
determined for it. To determine the removal and installation procedure for the
multi-adapter bridge’s FRU, locate the FRU’s card position in the ″FRU
Locations and Failing Items″ table for the frame type that you recorded. ″FRU
Locations and Failing Items″ tables are in “Locations and Addresses” on
page 705.
29. Install the original IOP in it’s original position.
30. Install all of the other IOPs and IOAs in to their original positions. Do not
install the IOAs that you were instructed to remove in step 6 on page 312 of
this procedure.
31. Power on the system or partition.
Does the SRC or failure that sent you to this procedure occur?
No Yes
↓ Call your next level of support.
This ends the procedure.
32. Install all of the IOAs that you removed in step 6 on page 312 of this
procedure. Be sure to install them in their original positions.
33. Power on the system or partition.
Does the SRC or failure that sent you to this procedure occur?
No Yes
↓ Call your next level of support.
This ends the procedure.
BUS PIP MAB-02
This procedure is intended to determine if the multi-adapter bridge may be failing
when the symbolic FRU PIOCARD is in the failing item list with other failing
items that have a multi-adapter bridge as a component. The procedure will start
with the failing item list for the SRC that sent you here. It will determine if
PIOCARD should be removed from the failing item list that you are working in.
