Use this procedure to reset an IOP.

About this task

Attention: When the IOP reset is performed, all resources controlled by the IOP will be reset. Perform this procedure only if the customer has verified that the IOP reset can be performed at this time.

Procedure

  1. Go to the SST/DST display in the partition which reported the problem.
    Use STRSST if IBM® i is running; use function 21 if STRSST does not work; or IPL the partition to DST.
  2. On the Start Service Tools Sign On display, type in a user ID with service authority and password.
  3. Select Start a service tool > Hardware service manager > Logical hardware resources > System bus resources.
  4. Page forward until you find the IOP that you want to reset.
    For help in identifying the IOP from the Direct Select Address (DSA) in the reference code, see DSA translation.
  5. Verify that the IOP are correct by matching the resource names on the display with the resource names in the Service Action Log (SAL) for the problem you are working on.
  6. Move the cursor to the IOP that you want to reset, and select I/O Debug > Reset IOP > IPL IOP. This ends the procedure.
