RE: A600 1730 SRC on Panel

[Chris Bipes <chris.bipes@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Well I have the same beast here with 2x32MB and 2x64MB for a total of 196MB.
Been this way for a couple of years.  3.7 to 4.3 to 4.4.  Never had that
SRC.  Your configuration seems to be correct.  What is you disk utilization
for the load source?  Do you have at least 196MB avail for a memory dump in
case of some sort of failure?

Subject: A600 1730 SRC on Panel


Hello all,

we are on a model 400 FC2130 Processor with OS V4R3
added memory (from 2x32 MB = 64MB to 2x32MB and 2x64MB = max)
now we get SRC A600 1730 on the panel and yellow attention light
src handbook says "system needs ipl to recover performance issue"
system is running "normal" as we can see so far.
IPL-ing does not change the situation.
Further comment on this is to contact IBM for further info !
Has anybody an idea ?

My first thought was one of the memory modules being faulty,
but SST and wrkhdwrsc shows everything "operational" and the
service processor did not complain about failing hardware at all.
Although: system builder handbook lists a max of 160 MB for the
2130 processor which would mean only the first(base) 32 MB are
allowed and the rest is to be filled up until 160 MB is reached.
(would mean to remove one 32 MB bank).
Configuration rules don't show to remove that 32 mb before
installing the additional 64 mb, so I just thought it was a typo.
Older manuals even say that a 166 MB is the max for that processor
which is not possible with only 32MB and 64MB modules, this lead
me to believe that the "166" was instead a "196" ...

Okay, I will report back here, when I solved it.
