Determining why processor cores were unconfigured

The processor cores might be unconfigured because the field core override function was ordered, and not because of a hardware failure.

To verify the reason for processor deconfiguration, complete the following steps:

  1. On the ASMI Welcome pane, specify your user ID and password, and click Log In.
  2. In the navigation area, expand System Service Aids > Error/Event Logs and System Service Aids and Deconfiguration Records.
  3. View the processor-related error log entries. If no processor-related error log entries are not found, the processor cores were unconfigured because the field core override function was ordered.
Note: When the system is powered off and the service processor is in standby mode, access the ASMI, and click System Configuration > Hardware Deconfiguration > Field Core Override, to see the total number of field core override cores in the system that will be powered on. This option is not available at run time.
