Note: See Chapter 7, "Parts listing Type 8488 and 8648," on page 129 to determine which components are replaceable by the customer (CRU), and which components must be replaced by a field service technician (FRU). Memory Symptom FRU/action The amount of system memory displayed is less than the amount of physical memory installed. 1. Verify that: v The memory modules are seated properly. v You have installed the correct type of memory. v If you changed the memory, you updated the memory configuration with the Configuration/Setup Utility program. v All banks of memory on the DIMMs are enabled. The server might have automatically disabled a DIMM bank when it detected a problem or a DIMM bank could have been manually disabled. 2. Check POST error log for error message 289: v If the DIMM was disabled by a system-management interrupt (SMI), replace the DIMM. v If the DIMM was disabled by the user or by POST: a. Start the Configuration/Setup Utility program. b. Enable the DIMM. c. Save the configuration and restart the server. 3. DIMM. 4. System board. Note: See Chapter 7, "Parts listing Type 8488 and 8648," on page 129 to determine which components are replaceable by the customer (CRU), and which components must be replaced by a field service technician (FRU). Microprocessor Symptom FRU/action The server emits a continuous tone during POST. (The startup (boot) microprocessor is not working properly.) 1. Verify that the startup microprocessor is seated properly. 2. Startup microprocessor. Note: See Chapter 7, "Parts listing Type 8488 and 8648," on page 129 to determine which components are replaceable by the customer (CRU), and which components must be replaced by a field service technician (FRU). Monitor Symptom FRU/action Monitor problems (general). Some IBM monitors have their own self-tests. If you suspect a problem with the monitor, refer to the information that comes with the monitor for adjusting and testing instructions. 1. Monitor. 2. Run video diagnostics. If diagnostics pass, the problem may be a video driver. 3. Display adapter / system board. 112 xSeries 226 Type 8488 and 8648: Hardware Maintenance Manual and Troubleshooting Guide
