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 297.
2. Run the test again.
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 301) to assign a
unique interrupt to the device.
4. 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.
5. If the failure remains, go to the IBM website for more
troubleshooting information at http://www.ibm.com/
