Service processor communication error displayed for multiple
blade servers

When attempting to resolve service processor communication errors on multiple
blade servers in a BladeCenter S chassis that has been functioning normally, you
need to ensure that you have physical access to the BladeCenter S chassis.

Problem

The advanced management module event log displays service processor
communication errors for multiple blade servers in a BladeCenter S chassis that
has been functioning normally.

Investigation

Perform these steps to resolve the problem:

1.

Restart the advanced management module. If that resolves the error, continue
monitoring the advanced management module for these errors.

2.

See “Service processor communication (SP COMM) errors displayed for a blade
server” on page 48 to isolate the problem blade servers and update the service
processor (BMC) firmware.

Watchdog timeout messages displayed for a blade server

Watchdog timeout messages are displayed in the advanced management module
event log. Use this procedure if there are multiple blade servers in a BladeCenter S
chassis and you are seeing these messages for only one of the blade servers.

Problem

The advanced management module event log displays watchdog timeout messages
for only one of the blade servers in a BladeCenter S chassis.

Investigation

Perform these steps to resolve the problem:

1.

Find firmware updates for the blade server and service processor. Look in the
firmware change history for information related to watchdog timeout errors
and update the firmware if necessary.

a.

Go to http://www.ibm.com/support/.

b.

In the choose support type field, select

BladeCenter

and click

Go

.

c.

Under Popular links, select

Software and Device Drivers

.

d.

Under BladeCenter device driver file matrices, select the appropriate blade
server.

2.

Find firmware updates for the advanced management module. Look in the
firmware change history for information related to watchdog timeout errors
and update the firmware if necessary.

3.

Verify the operation of the blade server. If it is responsive, the problem may be
a false error condition.

a.

Verify that the IBM Automatic Server Restart (ASR) driver is installed on
the blade server.

b.

Update the firmware for the service processor on the blade server

4.

If the blade server is nonresponsive, determine the cause of the problem:

v

If there are POST watchdog timeout messages for this blade server in the
event log, the BIOS flash image on the blade server may be corrupt.
