DEVTERM

The device terminating plug might be failing.

Complete the following steps:

  1. Find the IOA type:
    1. Find the IOA location information in the service action log if it is available. If the location is not available, find the address of the IOA. See the System reference code format description. Use the address to find the location. See Part locations and location codes.
    2. Find the IOA card in the system and read the type number of the card at that location.
  2. Use the information in the following table to determine the failing terminating plug.
    Storage IOA type Action
    2749 For device types 3490, 3570, 3590, 3995, and 7208, see FI00880. For all other devices, use part number 85F7887.
    5702/571A Use part number 23R5841.
    All others The terminator is integrated into the backplane and not a separate failing item.
  3. Replace the failing item. Note: If the terminating plug is located on a backplane, go to symbolic FRU BACKPLN. Follow the procedure until the terminating plug is accessible and then remove or replace the plug.
