VPDPART

Look here for information about VPDPART symbolic FRU.

  1. Is the reference code 1xxx 8402?
    • No: Continue with the next step.
    • Yes: Prior to exchanging any parts, verify that the processors cards are installed. If you are in test mode and have removed all of the processor cards, disregard this reference code. Otherwise, verify that the processor cards are installed correctly. If the processor cards are installed correctly, exchange the service processor card (in certain systems, the service processor function is built into the system backplane). Use the following table to determine the part number for the field replaceable unit (FRU):

      Note: If the reference code is associated with an I/O expansion unit, replace the I/O backplane in the I/O expansion unit.

      CCIN or FFC Type and model Part number Description Location code
      28A3 8204-E8A 10N9369 System backplane Un-P1
        9406-MMA, 9117-MMA 10N8752 Service processor card Un-P1-C11
        5790, 7311-D11 80P6626 I/O backplane Un-P1
        0595, 5095, 7311-D20 39J0515 I/O backplane Un-P1
        5796, 7314-G30 10N7677 I/O backplane Un-P1
        5094 39J3058 I/O backplane Un-CB1
      This ends the procedure.

  2. Is the reference code 1xxx 8404, 8405, or 8406?
    • No: Continue with the next step.
    • Yes: Use the following table to find the correct action to take.
      Reference code Action
      1xxx 8404 Processor card mismatch. Exchange processor card 2 in the primary drawer (top drawer). Use the table of processor card FRU part numbers at the end of this page to determine the part number for the field replaceable unit.
      1xxx 8405 Processor card mismatch. Exchange processor card 1 in a secondary unit. Use the table of processor card FRU part numbers at the end of this page to determine the part number for the field replaceable unit.
      1xxx 8406 Processor card mismatch. Exchange processor card 2 in a secondary unit. Use the table of processor card FRU part numbers at the end of this page to determine the part number for the field replaceable unit.

      This ends the procedure.

  3. Is the reference code 1xxx 8409?
    • No: Continue with the next step.
    • Yes: No processor cards are installed. If you are in test mode and have removed all of the processor cards, disregard this reference code. Otherwise, correct the processor cards. If the processor cards are installed correctly, exchange all processor cards, use the table of processor card FRU part numbers at the end of this page to determine the part number for the field replaceable unit. This ends the procedure.

  4. Is the reference code 1xxx 8413, 8414, 8415, or 8416?
    • No: Continue with the next step.
    • Yes: Use the reference code in the following table to find the FRU.
      Reference code Action
      1xxx 8413 Exchange processor card 1. Use the table of processor card FRU part numbers at the end of this page to determine the part number for the field replaceable unit.
      1xxx 8414 Exchange processor card 2. Use the table of processor card FRU part numbers at the end of this page to determine the part number for the field replaceable unit.
      1xxx 8415 Exchange processor card 3. Use the table of processor card FRU part numbers at the end of this page to determine the part number for the field replaceable unit.
      1xxx 8416 Exchange processor card 4. Use the table of processor card FRU part numbers at the end of this page to determine the part number for the field replaceable unit.

      This ends the procedure.

  5. Is the reference code 1xxx 8423 or 8424?
    • No: Continue with the next step.
    • Yes: Use the reference code in the following table to find the FRU part number.
      Reference code Action
      1xxx 8423 Exchange processor 1. Use the table of processor card FRU part numbers at the end of this page to determine the part number for the field replaceable unit.
      1xxx 8424 Exchange processor 2. Use the table of processor card FRU part numbers at the end of this page to determine the part number for the field replaceable unit.

      If this replacement does not fix the problem, replace the system or 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
      28A3 8204-E8A 10N9369 System backplane Un-P1
        9406-MMA, 9117-MMA 42R7352 I/O backplane Un-P1

  6. Is the 1xxx reference code 1xxx 911C?
    • No: Continue with the next step.
    • Yes: Two of the drawers in the multiple-drawer server have the same VPD information. Reset the system unique identifier in one of the drawers to resolve the problem. This ends the procedure.
  7. Is the 1xxx reference code 1xxx 84A1?
    • No: Continue with the next step.
    • Yes: The wrong regulator backplane (system processor backplane) is installed or the VPD is not correct. Replace the system backplane in the failing 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
        9406-MMA, 9117-MMA 03N6902 System backplane Un-P2
      This ends the procedure.

      This ends the procedure.
  10. Is the 1xxx reference code 1xxx 84A4?
    • No: Continue with the next step.
    • Yes: The service processor card in the failing drawer is not the same part number as the service processor card in the primary drawer (top drawer). Replace the service processor card in the failing drawer with a service processor card that has the same FRU part number as the service processor card in the primary drawer (top drawer).
