PRC in Word 4 of the SRC Problem Identified Corrective Action
xxxx 3212 NIC LEVEL DOES NOT
SUPPORT OPTICONNECT
See ″Corrective Action for
xxxx 3212″ below.
Corrective Action for xxxx 3212:The Network Interface Controller (NIC) hardware
component does not support HSL OptiConnect. The FRU containing the NIC
component must be upgraded to a level that supports HSL OptiConnect. The
Service Action Log will call out the correct FRU to replace. If you do not have the
service action log available then follow this procedure to determine which FRU to
replace:
1. Determine the model of the system.
2. Use the ″FRU Locations and Failing Components″ table for the model of the
system you are working on. Links to the ″FRU locations and Failing
Components″ tables are listed below in step 4 of this procedure.
3. In the ″FRU Locations and Failing Components″ table locate the Network
Interface Controller (NIC) component in the column labeled ″Possible Failing
Components.″ Use the service information in that row of the table to determine
the FRU position, FRU name, CCIN and Removal and Installation procedure
for the FRU containing the NIC.
4. Links to ″FRU Locations and Failing Components″ tables:
v For model 830, see Table 41 on page 710.
v For model 840, see Table 42 on page 720.
SIRSTAT
An informational status indication for an HSL loop is identified in the SRC.
The rightmost 4 characters of word 4 in the SRC is the program return code (PRC)
which indicates the HSL status. The leftmost 4 characters of word 7 in the SRC
indicate the HSL loop number in hexadecimal format.

Indicated status
3205 During IPL LIC determined that the loop was not complete.
This is expected if there are no I/O towers on the loop. This is also expected
if one of the I/O towers on the loop is a FC 5077 migrated tower which does
not have all three bus adapter cards installed.
This error can also occur when a tower, shared tower, or another system on
the loop did not complete powering on by the time LIC on this system
checked the loop for errors. As a result of that you may see this error in the
Service Action Log (SAL). When you find the same SRC with a ″3206″ PRC
in word 4, from the same IPL, it means that the problem no longer exists
and the SAL entry can be closed.
This error may also appear in the SAL if all I/O towers were removed from
the loop, but the HSL I/O Bridge resources of those towers were not deleted
from HSM. The service procedure(s) identified with the SRC that sent you to
this symbolic FRU will help you determine if the loop is functioning
correctly or if service is required.
3206 During normal operation an HSL loop recovered its redundant path. The
loop is now complete.
3208 During normal operation an HSL I/O bridge recovered a failed link on the
loop.
