Finding parts, locations, and addresses

Locate physical part locations and identify parts with system diagrams.

You can identify the enclosure in which a field-replaceable unit (FRU) is plugged by its location code. The first character of the location code is always U followed by a 4–character feature code or enclosure type as shown in the following example: U78CB.001.10ABCDE-P3-C31 In this example, the enclosure type is 78CB.

The next 3 characters of the location code indicate the model of the enclosure (001 in the example). The next string of characters provides the enclosure serial number (10ABCDE in the example).
Notes:
  • On a single-node system, the characters of the location code that indicate the model might be replaced with ND0.
  • On a 9080-HEU system, the model number might be replaced by a more specific enclosure indicator. SC1 indicates the system control unit, and ND0 through ND3 indicate system node 0 through system node 3.
Using this information, locate the enclosure with the FRU you want to replace. Find the enclosure type in the following table and go to the service guide for that enclosure.
Enclosure number Systems, expansion drawers, and storage enclosures
U78DA.mmm, where mmm is 001 or ND0 9824-22A or 9856-22H
U78DB.mmm, where mmm is 001 or ND0 9824-42A or 9856-42H
U780C.mmm, where mmm is 001 or ND0 9043-MRU
U78D6.SC1 9080-HEU system control unit
U78D8.mmm, where mmm is ND0, ND1, ND2, or ND3 9080-HEU system node
U5B61.001 or U5B67.001 ENZ0 PCIe Gen4 I/O expansion drawer
U50EE.001 NED24 NVMe expansion drawer

Locate the FRU

The string of characters that follow the enclosure serial number identifies the FRU location within the enclosure: U78CB.001.10ABCDE-P3-C31 In this example, P3-C31 is the location of the FRU to be replaced. Use the graphics and tables to locate the FRU and link to its removal and replacement procedure.
