Troubleshooting Option problems An IBM option that was just installed does not work. Action Verify that: 1. The option is designed for the system. 2. You followed the installation instructions that come with the option and the instructions in Chapter 4, "Installing options" on page 67. 3. You have not loosened any other installed options or cables. 4. If the option is an adapter, you have provided enough hardware resources for the adapter to function correctly. Refer to the documentation that comes with the adapter (as well as the documentation for any other installed adapters) to determine the resources that are required for each adapter. 5. All option files (if required) are installed correctly. See "Installing files from Option Diskettes" on page 163 for information on installing option files. 6. You updated the configuration information in the Configuration/Setup Utility program, if necessary, and have no conflicts. Whenever memory or an option is changed, you must update the configuration. For information on using the Configuration/Setup Utility program, see "Using the Configuration/Setup Utility program" on page 39. If the problem persists, run the diagnostic programs. (See "Running the diagnostic test programs" on page 164 for additional information on running the diagnostic programs that come with your server.) If the problem cannot be isolated and corrected, have the server and the option serviced. 212 Netfinity 3000 User's Handbook
