Reference Code History (Partition)

Use this window to view reference codes that have been generated for the selected logical partition. Reference codes are diagnostic aids that help you determine the source of a hardware or operating system problem.

By default, only the most recent reference codes that the logical partition has generated display on this window. To view more reference codes, enter the number of reference codes that you want to view into View history and click Go. The window displays that number of the latest reference codes, with the date and time at which each reference code was generated. The window can display up to the maximum number of reference codes stored for the logical partition.

The details displayed in the Reference Codes table are as follows.

Time stamp

This column displays the date and time at which each reference code was generated in Coordinated Universal Time (UTC).

Code

This column displays each reference code that was generated for the logical partition. You can click the reference code to see whether there is any additional descriptive text for the reference code.

FRU callout

This column displays the Field Replaceable Unit (FRU) numbers for the FRUs whose absence or failure caused each reference code to be generated.

You can select any of the reference codes in the table to more detailed information about the reference code in the Details table. The Details table displays hexadecimal words that can provide additional information about the problem that caused this reference code to be generated.
