2. The hardware is located in the system unit. Find the model number. When in manual mode, the
system displays the model number in function 20 in pxxx cccc format, where xxx is the model number.
v If you have location information (card or device position), use the Locations column above to find
the correct figure for the model you are working on.
v If you only have address information (Direct Select Address and Unit Address), use the Addresses
column above to find the figure which will show you the locations.
This ends the procedure.
3.
Do you know the frame ID?
v Yes: Continue with the next step.
v No: Use the following steps in Hardware Service Manager in SST/DST to locate which tower the
failing item is in, using the bus number given in the direct select address.
a. Go to SST. If SST is not available, go to DST.
Note: In some cases it may be necessary to IPL to get to DST.
b. Select Start a service tool —> Hardware service manager —> Logical hardware resources
—> System bus resources.
c. Change the System bus or buses to work with field to the decimal equivalent of the Hex bus
address (this is the first four characters of the Direct Select Address).
d. Press Enter.
e. Select the Associated packaging resources (option 8) for any IOP that is displayed.
f. The Frame ID is indicated in the ″Frame ID″ column.

Is the Frame ID 1?
v Yes: Go to step 2 (See page 225).
v No: The Frame ID is the hexadecimal representation of the decimal number displayed on the panel
of the unit or rack.
Note: If the tower unit is an Integrated xSeries Server for iSeries, the Frame ID will be displayed on
the 2689 adapter card located inside the tower unit (to find the card follow the SPCN or HSL cables
that connect to the card). You will need to remove the cover on the Integrated xSeries Server to
view the Frame ID.
