Collecting reference codes and system information

The reference codes and system information can help determine the solution to fix a problem. The reference codes and system information can appear on the Hardware Management Console (HMC), the error log in the Advanced System Management Interface (ASMI), or on the control panel (if you have one) on the server. If you have logical partitions, and your system is managed by an HMC, you will need to use the HMC to collect reference codes and system information.
