Error messages specific to the integrated Ethernet
subsystem
Note: The error messages shown in this section are available only
with the integrated Ethernet subsystem. These error
messages are not available when RPL (remote program load)
or DHCP (dynamic host configuration protocol) is used
through optional network adapters.
If a failure condition occurs after the Ethernet controller is
initialized, an error message appears on the screen. The error
messages that can occur are shown below. If you experience any
error related to the integrated Ethernet subsystem, record the error
message, and tell your network administrator about the problem.
RPL-related error messages
These error messages are specific to the integrated Ethernet
controller and the RPL environment of your server.
The two most common error messages are shown below.
RPL-ROM-ERR: 1ð5 The integrated Ethernet failed the loopback test.
RPL-ROM-ERR: 1ð7 Media test failed; check the cable.
Error 105 indicates that a power-on diagnostic test performed by the
Ethernet module did not execute correctly. If this error message
appears, you must have the computer serviced. Error 107 indicates
that the cable from the LAN is not securely connected to the
Ethernet port on your server. Check the cable to ensure that it is
properly connected.
Other error messages that might occur are shown in the following
table.
