- Is there only one B6005311 error logged, and is it against
the load source device for the partition, in either the Primary or a secondary
partition?
- Yes: Is the reporting partition the Primary partition?
- Yes: Continue with the next step.
- No: Go to step 3.
- No: Go to step 4.
- Was the load source disk unit migrated from another partition within
the same system?
- Yes: Is this load source device intended to be the load source
for the Primary partition?
- Yes: To accept the load source disk unit: Go to SST/DST in the
current partition and select Work with system partitions -> Recover configuration data -> Accept load source
disk unit. This ends the procedure.
- No: Power off the system. Return the original load source disk
to the Primary partition and perform a system IPL. This ends the procedure.
- No: The load source disk unit has not changed. Contact your next
level of support. This ends the procedure.
-
The reporting partition is a secondary partition.
Since the last IPL of the reporting partition, have one of the following
occurred?
- Has the Primary partition time/date been moved backward to a time/date
earlier than the previous setting?
- Has the system serial number been changed?
- Was the load source disk unit in this secondary partition, replaced intentionally
with a load source from another system or another partition from the same
system?
- Yes: To accept the load source disk unit: Go to SST/DST in the
current partition and select Work with system partitions -> Recover configuration data -> Accept load source
disk unitThis ends the procedure.
- No: Contact your next level of support. This ends the procedure.
-
Are there multiple B600 5311 SRCs logged
in the same partition?
- Yes: Continue with the next step.
- No: None of the conditions in this procedure have been met, call
your next level of support. This ends the procedure.
- Is the resource for one of the B600 5311 SRCs the load source
device and are all of the other B600 5311 entries for resources which
are non-configured disk units?
Note:
To determine
if a disk unit is a non-configured disk unit, refer to the "Work with disk
unit options" section in the "DST options" section of the "DST chapter" in
the iSeries(TM) Service
Functions information.
- Yes: Is the partition that is reporting the error the Primary partition?
- Yes: Continue with the next step.
- No: Go to step 7.
- No: Go to step 8.
- Was the load source disk unit migrated from another partition within
the same system?
- Yes: Is this load source device intended to be the load source
for the Primary partition?
- Yes: To accept the load source disk unit: Go to SST/DST in the
current partition and select Work with system partitions -> Recover configuration data -> Accept load source
disk unitThis ends the procedure.
- No: Power off the system. Return the original load source disk
to the Primary partition and perform a system IPL. This ends the procedure.
- No: The load source disk unit has not changed. Contact your next
level of support. This ends the procedure.
-
The reporting partition is a secondary partition.
Since the last IPL of the reporting partition, have one of the following
occurred:
- Has the Primary partition time/date been moved backward to a time/date
earlier than the previous setting?
- Has the system serial number been changed?
- Was the load source disk unit in this secondary partition, replaced intentionally
with a load source from another system or another partition from the same
system?
- Yes: To accept the load source disk unit: Go to SST/DST in the
current partition and select Work with system partitions -> Recover configuration data -> Accept load source
disk unitThis ends the procedure.
- No: Contact your next level of support. This ends the procedure.
-
One or more B600 5311 SRCs have been logged in
the same partition.
Do all of the B600 5311 errors have a resource
which is a non-configured disk unit in the partition?
Note:
To
determine if a disk unit is a non-configured disk unit, refer to the "Work
with disk unit options" section in the "DST options" section of the "DST chapter"
in the iSeries Service
Functions information.
- Yes: Continue with the next step.
- No: None of the conditions in this procedure have been met, call
your next level of support. This ends the procedure.
- Were any disk unit resources associated with the B600 5311 SRCs
added to the partition, since the last IPL of this partition?
- No: Continue with the next step.
- Yes: Perform the following to clear non-configured disk unit configuration
data:
- Go to SST/DST in the partition and select Work
with system partitions -> Recover configuration data -> Clear non-configured disk unit configuration data.
- Select each unit in the list which is new to the system and press Enter.
- Continue the system IPL. This ends the procedure.
- None of the resources that are associated with the B600 5311 SRCs
are disk units that were added to the partition since the last IPL of the
partition.
Has a scratch install recently been performed on
the partition that is reporting the error(s)?
- No: Continue with the next step.
- Yes: Go to step 13.
- If a scratch install was not performed, was the clear configuration
data option recently used to discontinue LPAR use?
- Yes: Continue with the next step.
- No: The Clear configuration data option
was not used. Contact your next level of support. This ends the procedure.
- Perform the following to clear non-configured disk unit configuration
data:
- Go to SST/DST in the partition and select Work
with system partitions -> Recover configuration data -> Clear non-configured disk unit configuration data.
- Select each unit in the list which is new to the system and
press Enter.
- Continue the system IPL. This ends the procedure.
-
Was the load source device previously mirrored
before the scratch install?
- Yes: Continue with the next step.
- No: Go to step 15.
- Perform the following to clear the old configuration data from
the disk unit that was mirroring the old load source disk
- Go to SST/DST in the partition and select Work
with system partitions -> Recover configuration data -> Clear non-configured disk unit configuration data.
- Select the former load source mirror in the list and press Enter.
-
Is the Primary partition reporting the B600 5311
error(s)?
- No: This ends the procedure.
- Yes: Does the customer want multiple partitions on the system?
- No: This ends the procedure.
- Yes: Use the Recover primary partition configuration
data option to retrieve the LPAR configuration data from other
devices in the system.
- Go to SST/DST in the primary partition and select Work
with system partitions -> Recover configuration data -> Recover primary partition configuration data.
The system will perform an automatic IPL.
- Verify the information that appears.
- The device should be a former load source device from a secondary partition.
- The time and date should reflect a time when that partition was active.
It should be more recent than the last change to the logical partition configuration. This
ends the procedure.
