Failing Item
6985
High Speed Link (HSL) loop status message.
If this SRC is not in Service Action Log (SAL) then it is informational. Use
FRU SIRSTAT to determine what this SRC means. Otherwise, continue with
the following steps:
This error can appear in the SAL when a tower or another system in the
loop did not complete powering on before LIC checked this loop for errors.
Search the PAL for all B600 6985 SRCs logged for this loop and use FRU
SIRSTAT to determine if this error requires service.
There may be multiple B600 6985 with xxxx 3205 in word 4 errors for the
same loop resource in the SAL. This is caused by retry and recovery
attempts. If there is a B600 6985 with xxxx 3206 in word 4 after the above
B600 6985 enteries in the PAL, then the recovery efforts were successful. If
this is the case, close all the B600 6985 enteries for that loop resource in the
SAL.
1.
If you find a B600 6981 in the SAL then close that problem and go to
step 2. Otherwise perform the following:
v
Perform BUS-PIPHSL06 to determine if any other systems are
connected to this loop and return here. (BUSCBLX FRU in the SAL
indicates the loop number.) If there are other system(s) then continue
with the steps that follow, otherwise go to step 2.
v
Check for HSL failures on the other system(s) before replacing parts.
HSL failures are SAL entries with HSL I/O Brige and Network
Interface Controller (NIC) resources. Ignore B600 6982 and B600 6984
entries. If there are HSL failures on other system(s) then continue
with the steps that follow, otherwise go to step 2.
v
Repair the problems on the other systems and return to this step.
After making repairs on the other system(s) check the PAL of this
system for a B600 6985 logged after the repairs you made on the
other system(s). If you find one then continue with the steps that
follow, otherwise go to step 2.
v
For the B600 6985 log you found, use FRU SIRSTAT to determine if
the loop is now complete. If the loop is complete then this problem
has been resolved. Use BUS-PIPHSL01 to verify that the loop is now
working properly. Otherwise, go to step 2.
2.
Use the SAL’s FRU list when it is available.
If this SRC appears in the SAL with the Symbolic FRU BUSCBLx listed
as a FRU, then perform problem isolation procedure BUS-PIPHSL01.
Otherwise exchange the FRUs listed in the SAL according to their part
action codes.
NOTE: A fiber optic cleaning kit may be required for optical HSL
connections.
