You've only got one network card?

About 3:30 I got a call from the factory that people can't punch out for
the end of the day, foreman can't sign in to review the days work
activity. I try to look and my screen goes blank. Look at the Lan
Console-it's gone.

With the network guy we tested a few things. Can't ping the Power9. I
unplug the network cables from the back and the switch reflects it. Front
of the system looks normal (B side N, etc. no error code). Call IBM with
system down. 45 minutes later I get call back to get more detailed
information and diagnose. (Seemed to take forever talking to this guy) The
diagnoses: bad network card. Trying to get the tech and part here by 7, but
later is more likely.
