v Follow the suggested actions in the order in which they are listed in the Action column until the problem is solved.
v See Chapter 4, “Parts listing, System x3550 M3 Types 4254 and 7944,” on page 159 to determine which components are
customer replaceable units (CRU) and which components are field replaceable units (FRU).
v If an action step is preceded by “(Trained service technician only),” that step must be performed only by a Trained
service technician.
v Go to the IBM support Web site at http://www.ibm.com/systems/support/ to check for technical information, hints, tips,
and new device drivers or to submit a request for information.

1. Make sure that the component firmware is at the
latest level. The installed firmware level is shown
in the DSA event log in the Firmware/VPD
section for this component. For more information,
see “Updating the firmware” on page 255.
2. Run the test again.
3. Replace the component that is causing the error.
If the error is caused by an adapter, replace the
adapter. Check the PCI Information and Network
Settings information in the DSA event log to
determine the physical location of the failing
component.
4. If the failure remains, go to the IBM Web site for
more troubleshooting information at

3. Check the interrupt assignments in the PCI
Hardware section of the DSA event log. If the
Ethernet device is sharing interrupts, if possible,
use the Setup utility see “Using the Setup utility”
on page 259) to assign a unique interrupt to the
device.
