Re: System Reference Codes on a 170

There seems to be a problem with the cache data in your RAID-Controller.
I looked up the SRC's in my 170's "Problem Analysis, Repair and Parts"
handbook. As far as I can see, there should be nothing wrong with your
harddisks, so don't worry yet.
Can you describe your system a bit more in detail, what kind of controller,
how many disks, do you mirror or do RAID5 ?

The first thing you should do now is to do a manual IPL from the panel
(01 A M).
When the system comes up to DST, we can go on.

Hi all,

Some weeks ago, I received an older system 170 ( 9406 - V4R3 ) from work.
I connected the machine on my hub and IPLd.
No problem so far, however the ethernet was not responding.
This problem could usually be resolved by vary off/on the line via the console.
Not having the cable to connect the twinax-controller to the console,
I decided to unplug the powercord ..... ( yes I know )

I now found back the cable at work, connected it to the console and IPLd.
( from A or B in manual mode )
Following System Reference Codes are displayed :

11-3 675A9010
12-3 00B20117
13-3 00000110
14-3 FFFFFFFF
15-3 675A0004
16-3 00000000
17-3 00000000
18-3 00000000
19-3 07278100

No sign yet on the console.

I think that I screwed up my disk(s)

Does anyone know the exact meanings of these SRCs and can this be resolved ?


Many thanks in advance,


Chris
