<h1 class="topictitle1">System reference codes</h1>
|
||
|
<div><p>A system reference code (SRC) is a set of eight characters that
|
||
|
identifies the name of the system component that detects the error codes and
|
||
|
the reference code that describes the condition.</p>
|
||
|
<p>The first 4 characters of the SRC indicate the type of error. The last
|
||
|
4 characters give additional information. In this document, when xxxx is shown
|
||
|
as the last 4 characters of the SRC, each x can be any number 0 through 9,
|
||
|
or letter A through F.</p>
|
||
|
<p>When the system detects a problem, it displays an SRC on the system control
|
||
|
panel. When you go through the following problem-analysis procedure, you will
|
||
|
find out how to record the SRC on paper. The information gained from the SRC
|
||
|
can help the hardware service provider better understand the problem and how
|
||
|
to fix it. Also, you might be able to find the SRC in the system reference
|
||
|
code list to resolve it further on your own.</p>
|
||
|
<div class="section"><h4 class="sectiontitle">Examples: SRCs</h4><p>The following examples show SRCs
|
||
|
that might occur as the result of an abnormal restart:</p>
|
||
|
</div>
|
||
|
<div class="section"><h4 class="sectiontitle">Example 1:</h4><p>Any B900 xxxx SRC (where xxxx is any
|
||
|
number or letter) during the start of the operating system phase of restart.</p>
|
||
|
</div>
|
||
|
<div class="section"><h4 class="sectiontitle">Example 2:</h4><p>A Power Down System (PWRDWNSYS) command
|
||
|
that was not completed, ending with an SRC of B900 3F10.</p>
|
||
|
</div>
|
||
|
<div class="section" id="rzahbsrc__rzahbera"><a name="rzahbsrc__rzahbera"><!-- --></a><h4 class="sectiontitle">Error codes</h4><p>An error code is a group
|
||
|
of characters or digits displayed on the console. Error codes are displayed
|
||
|
in an error message, recorded in a problem log entry, or shown on the system
|
||
|
control panel.</p>
|
||
|
<p>Error codes indicate that a hardware or software error
|
||
|
condition has occurred in the system.</p>
|
||
|
<p>The system attention
|
||
|
light is turned on when the system detects a hardware error it cannot correct.
|
||
|
An error might result in the loss or corruption of data.</p>
|
||
|
<p>The error code
|
||
|
recorded in the problem log is used to report errors and to perform problem
|
||
|
analysis and resolution. Some error codes have the system automatically collect
|
||
|
associated data that is used to diagnose the problem.</p>
|
||
|
<p>Some error codes
|
||
|
require you to restart the system for recovery, whereas others might be handled
|
||
|
and automatically recovered by the system.</p>
