SCSI Messages Note If the server has a CD-ROM drive, but does not have a hard disk drive, ignore any message that indicates that the BIOS is not installed. SCSI Messages All Description One or more of the following might be causing the problem. A failing SCSI device (adapter, drive, controller) An improper SCSI configuration Duplicate SCSI IDs in the same SCSI chain An improperly installed SCSI terminator A defective SCSI terminator An improperly installed cable A defective cable Action: Verify that: The external SCSI devices are turned on. External SCSI devices must be turned on before the system. The cables for all external SCSI devices are connected correctly. The last device in each SCSI chain is terminated correctly. (See "SCSI Drives" on page 129 for more SCSI chain information.) The SCSI devices are configured correctly. If the above are correct, run the diagnostics for additional information about the failing device. IBM Netfinity 7000 - Type 8651 17
