FWPCI3

If you receive symbolic FRU FWPCI3, do one of the following procedures.

1. If the location code identifies a PCI card slot:
   1. Check the cabling to the adapter (in particular, the adapters that have system ports). System ports might require null modems or special cabling configurations to avoid connecting driver outputs together. This might create a PCI power problem and force the adapter to be de-configured.
   2. Move the adapter to another slot (behind another PCI bridge). PCI adapter placement for machine type 820x and 91xx identifies the PCI Host Bridges (PHB) and associated slots.
   3. Check for adapter firmware updates. Apply the update if one is available.
   4. Replace the adapter. See Managing PCI adapters for PCI adapter FRU part numbers.
   5. Check for platform firmware updates. Apply the update if one is available.
   6. Replace the I/O backplane (system backplane on certain systems), use the following table to determine the part number for the field replaceable unit (FRU).

      CCIN or FFC	Type and model	Part number	Description	Location code
      	8203-E4A, 8261-E4S, 9407-M15, 9408-M25	See System parts.	System backplane	Un-P1
      	8204-E8A, 9409-M50	10N9369	System backplane	Un-P1
      	9406-MMA, 9117-MMA	42R7352	I/O backplane	Un-P1
      	5790, 7311-D11	80P6626	I/O backplane	Un-P1
      	0595, 5095, 7311-D20	39J0515	I/O backplane	Un-P1
      	5796, 7314-G30	See System parts.	I/O backplane	Un-P1
      	5094, 5096, 5294, 5296	39J3058	I/O backplane	Un-CB1

2. If the location identifies an I/O backplane:
   1. Check for platform firmware updates. Apply the update if one is available.
   2. Replace the I/O backplane (system backplane on certain systems), use the following table to determine the part number for the field replaceable unit (FRU).

      CCIN or FFC	Type and model	Part number	Description	Location code
      	8203-E4A, 8261-E4S, 9407-M15, 9408-M25	See System parts.	System backplane	Un-P1
      	8204-E8A, 9409-M50	10N9369	System backplane	Un-P1
      	9406-MMA, 9117-MMA	42R7352	I/O backplane	Un-P1
      	5790, 7311-D11	80P6626	I/O backplane	Un-P1
      	0595, 5095, 7311-D20	39J0515	I/O backplane	Un-P1
      	5796, 7314-G30	See System parts.	I/O backplane	Un-P1
      	5094, 5096, 5294, 5296	39J3058	I/O backplane	Un-CB1

This ends the procedure.
