PIOCARD

The hardware that controls PCI adapters and PCI card slots detected an error.

For more information about failing part numbers, location codes, or removal and replacement procedures, see Part locations and location codes. Select your machine type and model number to see applicable procedures for your system.

The failing component is the adapter in the location specified by the direct select address (DSA) in the reference code. When possible, the diagnostic code will determine the FRU location for the serviceable event view.

  1. Are you working from the serviceable event view and a PCI adapter location is listed with this FRU?
    • No: Complete the following steps:
      1. Record the DSA, which is word 7 of the reference code.
      2. Locate the card specified in the DSA by performing the DSA translation procedure. Use the DSA translation procedure to determine a card position when no location is given for a PCI adapter FRU. Return here after locating the FRU and continue with the next step.
    • Yes: There is a location code for the PCI adapter in the serviceable event view. Continue with the next step.
  2. Were you sent to this procedure from another procedure in order to obtain the PCI adapter location?
    • No: Continue with the next step.
    • Yes: Return to the procedure that sent you here. This ends the procedure.
  3. Use the table below to determine the service action to perform.
    Type and model Part number Service action
    5148-21L, 5148-22L, 8247-21L, 8247-22L, 8284-21A, or 8284-22A Remove the adapter to determine the part number or use the CCIN of the adapter and go to PCI adapter information by feature type for the 5148-21L, 5148-22L, 8247-21L, 8247-22L, 8284-21A, or 8284-22A to determine the part number. Replace the PCI adapter at the location identified in this procedure. See Removing and replacing PCIe adapters in the 5148-21L, 5148-22L, 8247-21L, 8247-22L, 8284-21A, or 8284-22A system.
    8247-42L, 8286-41A, or 8286-42A Remove the adapter to determine the part number or use the CCIN of the adapter and go to PCI adapter information by feature type for the 8247-42L, 8286-41A, or 8286-42A to determine the part number. Replace the PCI adapter at the location identified in this procedure. See Removing and replacing PCIe adapters in the 8247-42L, 8286-41A, or 8286-42A system.

This ends the procedure.
