b.
Confirm that the channels identified from the error in step 2a on page 132
are the cause of the error by verifying that the error presents itself
only
when the offending channel is reconnected.
c.
Check termination of identified channel.
Note:
SCSI channel termination details, if any, appear elsewhere in this
publication.
d.
Check for proper backplane jumper configuration.
Note:
SCSI channel jumper details, if any, appear elsewhere in this
publication.
e.
Check for proper cabling configuration in systems that use hard disk drive
status cables. Reconnect all cables removed in step 1 on page 132.
f.
Disconnect one drive at a time attached to the channel identified in step 2a
on page 132; then, restart to determine which drive is causing the error.
g.
Replace hard disk drive cable.
h.
Replace hard disk drive backplane.
FFFF or other code not listed
1.
Place download jumpers on the controller and try to flash the firmware code to
the card.
2.
Isolate between SCSI subsystem and controller by disconnecting all hard disk
drive cables attached to the suspect card, and restart.
Attention:
Do not press F5. Doing so changes the server configuration.
If ISPR code is
EF10
after disconnecting cables, follow these steps until the
error is eliminated:
