601 A failure occurred during testing of the diskette drive and
diskette-drive controller. This error can be caused by a loose or
incorrectly connected cable, a failing drive, or a failing system
board.
Note: You can use the server, but one or more diskette drives
might not work.
Action: Verify that all diskette drive cables are properly installed
and securely connected.
Running the diagnostic tests might isolate the server component
that failed, but you must have your system serviced. (See
“Running the diagnostic test programs” on page 164 for
information on running the diagnostic programs that come with
your server.)
602 The server cannot start the diskette in the drive. The diskette
might be damaged or formatted incorrectly.
Action: Try another startable diskette that is formatted correctly
and is in good condition. (For information and instructions on
formatting diskettes, refer to your operating-system
documentation.)
If this does not correct the problem, have the system serviced.
604 A failure occurred during a diskette-drive test.
Action:
1. Verify that the Configuration/Setup Utility program correctly
reflects the type of diskette drive that you have installed. For
information on using the Configuration/Setup Utility
program, see “Using the Configuration/Setup Utility
program” on page 39.
2. Run the diagnostic programs. (See “Running the diagnostic
test programs” on page 164 for information on running the
diagnostic programs that come with your server.)
3. If the diagnostic programs detect a failure, replace the
diskette drive.
If the problem cannot be isolated and corrected, have the system
serviced.
