Diagnostic Messages
Diagnostic Messages
Error messages indicate that a problem exists; they are not intended to be used to
identify a failing part. Troubleshooting and servicing of complex problems indicated
by these error messages should be performed by a trained service technician.
Sometimes the first error to occur causes additional errors. In this case, the
system displays more than one error message. Always follow the suggested action
instructions for the
first error message that appears.
Diagnostic Message Tables
The following pages contain the error codes that you might receive in the diagnostic
program detailed test log and summary log when running the diagnostic programs
for your Netfinity 5000 server.
The format for the codes is:
fff-ttt-iii-date-cc-text message
where:
fff is the three-digit function code that indicates the function being tested
when the error occurred. For example, function code 089 is for the
microprocessor.
ttt is the three-digit failure code that indicates the exact test failure that
was encountered. (These codes are for trained service personnel and
are not listed here. They can be found in the
IBM Netfinity 5000
Hardware Maintenance Manual, which is available for purchase.)
iii is the three-digit device ID. (These codes are for trained service
personnel and are not listed here. They can be found in the
IBM
Netfinity 5000 Hardware Maintenance Manual, which is available for
purchase.)
date is the date that the diagnostic test was run and the error recorded.
cc is the check digit that is used to verify the validity of the information.
text message is a message that the diagnostic program generates that indicates
the reason for the problem. More information about the text message
follows.
Text Messages
The text message format is:
Function Name: Result (test specific string)
where:
Function Name is the name of the function being tested when the error occurred.
This corresponds to the function code (fff) given in the previous list.
Result can be one of the following:
Passed This result occurs when the diagnostic test completes
without any errors.
Failed This result occurs when the diagnostic test discovers an
error.
