FSPSPB1

This error code indicates that the service processor failed early in its boot process.

Activate the service processor pinhole reset switch on the system's operator panel.
Note: You must activate the service processor pinhole reset switch very carefully. Using an insulated paper clip is recommended. Unbend the clip so that it has a straight section about two inches long. Insert the clip straight into the hole, keeping the clip perpendicular to the plastic bezel. When you engage the reset switch, you should feel the detent of the switch. After you press the switch, the service processor is reset, then the system shuts down.

After activating the service processor pinhole reset switch, do the following:

  1. Reboot the system in slow mode from the permanent side using operator panel function 02.
  2. Is there an HMC attached to the system?
    NO
    Contact your service representative.
    YES
    Attempt to reflash the platform firmware from the HMC. If the reflash is successful (the server boots to partition standby), that's the end this procedure. If the reflash is not successful, go to step 3.
  3. Contact your service representative.
