IOPIP33

The I/O processor card detected a device configuration error. The configuration sectors on the device may be incompatible with the current I/O processor card.

You were sent to this procedure from unit reference code (URC) 9001.
  1. If the system has logical partitions, perform this procedure from the logical partition that reported the problem. To determine if the system has logical partitions, go to (Determine if the system has logical partitions) before continuing with this procedure.
  2. Has the I/O adapter been replaced with a different type of I/O adapter, or have the devices been moved from a different type of I/O adapter to this one?
    • No: Contact your next level of support. This ends the procedure.
    • Yes: Continue with the next step.
  3. Does the disk unit contain data that needs to be saved?
    • Yes: Continue with the next step.
    • No: Initialize and format the disk units.

      Attention: Any data on the disk unit will be lost.

      Perform the following:
    1. Access SST or DST.
    2. Select Work with disk units.
    3. Did you get to DST with a type D IPL?
      • No: Select Work with disk unit recovery > Disk unit problem recovery procedures. Then, continue with the next step.
      • Yes: Continue with the next step.
    4. Select Initialize and format disk unit for each disk unit. When the new disk unit is initialized and formatted, the display will show that the status is complete. This may take 30 minutes or longer.
    5. The disk unit is now ready to be added to the system configuration. This ends the procedure.
  4. The disk unit contains data that needs to be saved.
    • If the I/O adapter has been replaced with a different type of I/O adapter, reinstall the original I/O adapter. Then continue with the next step.
    • If the disk units have been moved from a different type of I/O adapter to this one, return the disk units to their original I/O adapter. Then continue with the next step.
  5. Stop parity protection on the disk units, and power down the system normally with the I/O adapter in an operational state. The I/O adapter or disk units can now be returned to the configuration at the beginning of this procedure. This ends the procedure.
