Resolving The Problem

This index supports ServeRAID-4H, ServeRAID-4L and ServeRAID-4M Ultra 160 SCSI Controllers.

The Symptom-to-FRU index lists symptoms, errors, and the possible causes.

The purpose of this index is to allow the servicer to determine which FRUs may need to be replaced at the conclusion of troubleshooting procedures.

NOTE: Do not replace any FRU until you have followed the POST (ISPR) Error Procedures . Only replace a ServeRAID-4H, -4L or -4M Controller if indicated to do so in the POST (ISPR) Error Procedures.

XXX in the following table is used as a placeholder and may be any letter or number in an actual error message.
