Chapter 3. Maintenance Analysis Procedures (MAPs)
Entry MAP
Use the following table to determine your starting point.
When possible, run online diagnostics in service mode. Online diagnostics perform
additional functions, compared to standalone diagnostics. This ensures that the error
state of the system is captured in NVRAM for your use in fixing the problem. The AIX
error log and SMIT are only available when diagnostics are run from the hard drive.
Notes:
1. When an eight-digit error code is displayed on the operator panel, additional error
codes can sometimes be obtained by looking at the system reference codes in
functions 11 to 19. See “Appendix C. Operator Panel Function Codes” on page 595
for more information about viewing functions 11 to 19 and note any additional codes
that are available. After checking for additional codes, return here and continue with
this MAP.
2. Licensed programs frequently rely on network configuration, and system information
stored on the VPD module on the operator panel control assembly. If the MAPs
indicate that the operator panel control assembly should be replaced, see
“Appendix E. System Vital Product Data” on page 613. If additional help is needed,
contact technical support. If recovery is not possible, notify the customer or system
administrator that new keys for licensed programs may be required.
3. If a network adapter is replaced, the network administrator must be notified so that
the client IP addresses used by the server can be changed. In addition, the
operating system configuration of the network controller may need to be changed in
order to enable system startup. Also check to ensure that any client or server that
addresses this system is updated.
Symptom Starting Point
You have a problem that does not prevent the
system from booting and all I/O drawer
indicator panels are functional.
Go to the Fast Path MAP in the Diagnostic
Information for Multiple Bus Systems.
You have a problem that does not prevent the
system from booting and an I/O drawer
indicator panel is not functioning.
Replace the following parts one at a time in the
I/O drawer with the non-functioning indicator
panel.
1. Drawer indicator panel card
2. Drawer indicator panel
3. Drawer indicator panel cable.
You do not have a symptom. Go to MAP 0020 in the Diagnostic Information
for Multiple Bus Systems
You have an SRN. Go to the Fast Path MAP in the Diagnostic
Information for Multiple Bus Systems.
