Description
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: The server can be used, 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 programs might isolate the diskette drive that failed,
but you must have your computer serviced. (See “IBM Enhanced Diagnostics”
on page 191 for information about diagnostic programs provided with your
server.)
602 The server is not able to 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 computer serviced.
604 A failure occurred during the testing of a diskette drive.
Action:
1. Verify that the Configuration/Setup Utility program correctly reflects the
type of diskette drive you have installed. (For instructions on using the
Configuration/Setup Utility program, refer to Chapter 3, “Using the
Configuration/Setup Utility Program” on page 17.)
2. Run the diagnostic programs. (See “IBM Enhanced Diagnostics” on
page 191 for information about diagnostic programs provided 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 computer serviced.
