TWRCARD

An SPCN card might be failing. The SPCN card can be on either an adapter style card or integrated on the system backplane or an I/O backplane in an attached I/O expansion unit.

Perform the following to service this FRU.

  1. Is the system reference code (SRC) 1xxx 5000 or 1xxx 5001?
    • No: Continue to the next step.
    • Yes:
      • For SRC 1xxx 5000 do one of the following:
        • For model 8204-E8A, replace the system backplane, use the following table to determine the part number for the field replaceable unit (FRU):
          CCIN or FFC Type and model Part number Description Location code
            8204-E8A 10N9369 System backplane Un-P1

        • For model 9406-MMA or 9117-MMA, replace the service processor card in the top drawer of a multiple-drawer system (unit 0), use the following table to determine the part number for the field replaceable unit (FRU):
          CCIN or FFC Type and model Part number Description Location code
            9406-MMA, 9117-MMA 10N8752 Service processor card Un-P1-C11

      • For SRC 1xxx 5001:
        • For model 9406-MMA or 9117-MMA, replace the service processor card in the second drawer of a multiple-drawer system (unit 1), use the following table to determine the part number for the field replaceable unit (FRU):
          CCIN or FFC Type and model Part number Description Location code
            9406-MMA, 9117-MMA 10N8752 Service processor card Un-P1-C11

  2. Verify that all cables are seated correctly.
  3. Examine the location code of this FRU in the serviceable event view you are working with to determine the unit's type and model. Is the failing SPCN component in the system unit?
    • No: Go to step 5.
    • Yes:
      • For model 8204-E8A, the SPCN component is part of the system backplane, replace the system backplane. Use the following table to determine the part number for the field replaceable unit (FRU):
        CCIN or FFC Type and model Part number Description Location code
          8204-E8A 10N9369 System backplane Un-P1

      • For model 9406-MMA or 9117-MMA, replace the service processor card in the top drawer of a multiple-drawer system (unit 0), use the following table to determine the part number for the field replaceable unit (FRU):
        CCIN or FFC Type and model Part number Description Location code
          9406-MMA, 9117-MMA 10N8752 Service processor card Un-P1-C11

  4. Does the reference code still occur?
    • No: This ends the procedure.
    • Yes:
      • For model 8204-E8A, contact your next level of support. This ends the procedure.
      • On a model 9406-MMA or 9117-MMA, replace the I/O backplane, use the following table to determine the part number for the field replaceable unit (FRU):
        CCIN or FFC Type and model Part number Description Location code
          9406-MMA, 9117-MMA 42R7352 I/O backplane Un-P1

  5. The failing SPCN component is in an I/O expansion drawer.
    Use the following table to determine the part number for the field replaceable unit (FRU):
    CCIN or FFC Type and model Part number Description Location code
      5790, 7311-D11 80P6626 The SPCN components are part of the I/O backplane, replace the I/O backplane Un-P1
      0595, 5095, 7311-D20 39J0515 The SPCN components are part of the I/O backplane, replace the I/O backplane Un-P1
      5796, 7314-G30 41L6022 SPCN card Un-P1-C8
      5094 39J3058 The SPCN components are part of the I/O backplane, replace the I/O backplane Un-CB1
      1519 42R4468 Integrated xSeries adapter  

    This ends the procedure.
