7.13.3.2

Action

1. Replace the drive indicated by the failure message.

7.13.3.3

Symptom

Disk drive or CD-ROM drive fails to boot or is not responding to commands.

7.13.3.4

Action

Test the drive response to the

probe-scsi-all

command as follows:

1. At the system

ok

prompt, type:

ok reset-all

ok probe-scsi-all

2. If the SCSI device responds correctly to

probe-scsi-all

, a message similar

to the one shown in the probe-scsi output example on Section 7.1 “About
Diagnostic Tools” on page 186 is printed out.

If the device responds and a message is displayed, the system SCSI controller has
successfully probed the device. This indicates that the main logic board is
operating correctly.

a. If one drive does not respond to the SCSI controller probe but the others

do, replace the unresponsive drive.

b. If only one internal disk drive is configured with the system and the

probe-scsi-all

test fails to show the device in the message, replace the

drive.

c. If the problem is still evident after replacing the drive, replace the main

logic board.

d. If replacing both the disk drive and the main logic board does not correct

the problem, replace the associated UltraSCSI data cable and UltraSCSI
backplane.
