(A6xx, B6xx) Licensed Internal Code reference codes

Use this table for both A6xx and B6xx reference codes. Bus errors are of the form B600 69xx. Other subsystems that produce Licensed Internal Code errors are also represented in the B6xx Reference Code Table.

Perform the following:

  1. Find the SRC in the SRC column of the following table.
  2. Perform the actions in the What You Should Do column of the table.

In all cases, after you determine the failing item, go to the locations table for the system or tower you are working on to determine the location, and to the removal and replacement procedure for the failing item.

Table 1. General description of recommended actions

SRC What You Should Do
11 A6xx xxxx Licensed Internal Code intervention is needed.
  1. Look at characters 5 through 8 of the top 16 character line of function 11 (4 rightmost characters of word 1). These 4 characters are the unit reference code.
  2. See the following table (Table 2) and find the unit reference code.
11 B6xx xxxx The Licensed Internal Code detected a failure.
  1. Look at characters 5 through 8 of the top 16 character line of function 11 (4 rightmost characters of word 1). These 4 characters are the unit reference code.
  2. See the following table (Table 2) and find the unit reference code.
  3. When working with the Product Activity Log, System Licensed Internal Code entries often occur as a secondary effect of other hardware related entries. The following list is a suggested method of isolating these kinds of problems.
    1. Examine the date and time of the informational reference codes.
    2. Determine if any other reference codes were logged at or before the same date and time.
    3. Start the service approach based on these other logged errors.

For more on the Failing Item column entries, see Table 3. Licensed Internal Code failing items details, which follows the reference code table below.

Table 2. (A6xx, B6xx) Licensed Internal Code reference codes

Reference Code Description/Action Perform all actions before exchanging Failing Items Failing Item
0000 Operating system status code

This reference code is for information only. It is shown in the Product activity log as a side effect of a condition that was detected by LIC.

Normally, no action should be taken as a result of information reference codes. However, to isolate the root cause, use these suggestions:
  1. Examine the date and time of the informational reference code.
  2. Determine if any other reference codes have been logged at or before the same date and time.
  3. Begin the service approach based on these other logged errors.

This can be caused by "PCI error injection policy" being set to "YES" and an I/O Processor being installed on the same Multi-adapter bridge domain as the I/O Adapter. Do one of the following:

-- Using the HMC or a customer PC with a Web browser access the Advanced System Management Interface (ASMI) and disable PCI error injection policy.

OR

-- Vary off the I/O Adapter. Using Hardware Service manager in SST/DST, locate the I/O Adapter resource. Using concurrent maintenance on the associated packaging resource, remove the I/O Adapter and install it in a location that does not have I/O Processors on the same Multi-adapter bridge domain.

OR

-- Vary off the I/O Adapter. Use the concurrent maintenance option in Hardware Service Manager in SST/DST to power off all I/O Processors located on the same Multi-adapter bridge domain as the I/O Adapter. Use concurrent maintenance to power off and power on the I/O Adapter. Then use concurrent maintenance to power on the I/O Processors located on the same Multi-adapter bridge domain as the I/O Adapter.

6970 High Speed Link (HSL) resource failure

A system PCI bus failure was detected. Word 7 of the SRC contains the bus number.

This failure can occur when a tower in an HSL loop is powered off using concurrent maintenance. If this is the case, close this problem.

This error is most likely in the hardware that makes up the PCI bus, the PCI bus side of the HSL I/O bridge or the multi-adapter bridge. In some cases it may be caused by a failing IOP in the multi-adapter bridge's domain. When an IOP is causing the problem, the failing IOP cannot be identified.

NOTE: This SRC can occur for the PCI bus resource on a PCI bus in an I/O expansion unit when the unit is powered off for a concurrent maintenance action.

Exchange the failing items, one at a time, in the order they are listed in the serviceable event view or this document until you get to the BRDGSET or BRDGSTx symbolic FRU. If the problem still exists after exchanging the failing items up to, but not including, BRDGSET or BRDGSTx then perform MABIP03 to determine the failing I/O processor card.

For this reference code the failing item list presented in the Service Action Log (SAL), or serviceable event view you are working with, can be different from the failing item list documented here. That is due to the differences in system models and features installed.

This SRC may also appear in the Service Action Log (SAL), or serviceable event viewer you are using, with a B600 6982 or B600 6981 logged at approximately the same time. In that case the other SRC is reporting a failure and this SRC is reporting that the alternate HSL path is now being used. Service the other SRC if present.

6985 High Speed Link (HSL) loop status message

If this SRC is not in the Service Action Log (SAL), or serviceable event view you are using, then it is informational. Use FRU SIRSTAT to determine what this SRC means. Otherwise, continue with the following steps:

This error can appear as a serviceable event when a tower, or I/O unit or another system in the loop did not complete powering on before LIC on this system checked this loop for errors. Search the Product Activity Log (PAL) for the last B600 6985 SRC logged for this loop and use FRU SIRSTAT to determine if this error requires service. If the last entry indicates the loop is functioning (determined by FRU SIRSTAT) then no service action is required, close this problem

There may be multiple B600 6985 logs with xxxx 3205 in word 4 errors for the same loop resource in the serviceable event view. This is caused by retry and recovery attempts. If there is a B600 6985 with xxxx 3206 or xxxx 3208 in word 4 after the above B600 6985 entries in the PAL, then the recovery efforts were successful. If this is the case, close all the B600 6985 entries for that loop resource in the serviceable event view.

  1. If you find a B600 6981 in the serviceable event view then close that problem and go to step 2. Otherwise perform the following:
    • Perform RIOIP06 to determine if any other systems are connected to this loop and return here. (HSL_LNK or HSLxxxx FRU in the Service Action Log (SAL) entry, or serviceable event view you are working with, indicates the loop number.) If there are other system(s) then continue with the steps that follow, otherwise go to step 2.
    • Check for HSL failures on the other system(s) before replacing parts. HSL failures are serviceable event entries with HSL I/O Bridge and Network Interface Controller (NIC) resources. Ignore B600 6982 and B600 6984 entries. If there are HSL failures on other system(s) then continue with the steps that follow, otherwise go to step 2.
    • Repair the problems on the other systems and return to this step. After making repairs on the other system(s) check the Product Activity Log (PAL) of this system for a B600 6985 logged after the repairs you made on the other system(s). If you find one then continue with the steps that follow, otherwise go to step 2.
    • For the B600 6985 log you found, use FRU SIRSTAT to determine if the loop is now complete. If the loop is complete then this problem has been resolved. Use RIOIP01 to verify that the loop is now working properly. Otherwise, go to step 2.
  2. Use the serviceable event's FRU list when it is available.

    If this SRC appears in the Service Action Log (SAL), or the serviceable event view you are using, with the Symbolic FRU HSL_LNK or HSLxxxx listed as a FRU, then perform problem isolation procedure RIOIP01. Otherwise exchange the FRUs listed in the serviceable event view.

7777 Hardware configuration change detected
A hardware resource is missing. The resource reported in to the system on a previous IPL, but has not reported in on the current IPL. This could occur for several different reasons.
  1. It could be a normal situation where the resource is currently powered off. In this case, when the resource is powered back on, it will no longer be missing.
  2. The hardware resource could also be missing if it has been removed from the system, for example, a tape drive that was replaced with a different tape drive. The service representative should use the Hardware service manager to remove the entry for this resource.
  3. The resource may not have reported in on this IPL because it is failing. Perform problem analysis to determine why the resource is failing.
