Error Code/Symptom
FRU/Action
Offending address not
found
Cause:
This message is used in conjunction with the I/O channel check and RAM
PARITY error message when the segment that has caused the problem cannot be
isolated.
Press a key to reboot
Cause:
An error has occurred that requires a reboot.
Action:
Press any key.
Press F1 to disable NMI, F2
to reboot
Cause:
BIOS detected a non-maskable interrupt condition during boot.
Action:
Press
F1 to disable NMI or F2 to reboot the system with NMI enabled.
RAM parity error - checking
for segment...
Cause:
Parity error in Random Access Memory.
Should be empty but EIS
board found
Cause:
A valid board ID was found in a slot that was configured as having no board
ID.
Action:
Run EISA configuration utility.
ServeRAID
For ServeRAID error codes and procedures, refer to the Hardware Maintenance
Manual for the particular RAID adapter in the system being serviced.
Undetermined problems
You are here because the diagnostic tests did not identify the failure, the Devices
List is incorrect, or the system is inoperative.
Note:
A corrupt CMOS can cause undetermined problems.
If power problems are suspected:
1.
Power-off the computer.
2.
Be sure the system is cabled correctly.
3.
Remove or disconnect the following (one at a time) until you find the failure
(power-on the computer and reconfigure each time).
v
Any external devices
v
Surge suppressor device (on the computer)
v
Modem, printer, mouse, or non-IBM devices
v
Each adapter
v
Drives
v
Memory Modules (Minimum requirement = one 128 MB DIMM)
Note:
Minimum operating requirements are:
a.
1 Power Supply
b.
System Board
c.
1 Microprocessor
d.
1 Terminator Card in Slot 2
e.
1 Memory Module (minimum of 1 DIMM in slot labeled DIMM 1)
4.
Power-on the computer. If the problem remains, suspect the following FRUs in
the order listed:
Power Supply
System Board
Notes:
1.
If the problem goes away when you remove an adapter from the system, and
replacing that adapter does not correct the problem, suspect the system board,
then the power supply.
2.
If you suspect a networking problem and all the system tests pass, suspect a
network cabling problem external to the system.
