v
Failure symptom
– Do diagnostics fail?
– What, when, where, single, or multiple systems?
– Is the failure repeatable?
– Has this configuration ever worked?
– If it has been working, what changes were made prior to it failing?
– Is this the original reported failure?
v
Reference/Diagnostics version
– Type and version level
v
Hardware configuration
– Print (print screen) configuration currently in use
– BIOS level
v
Operating system software
– Type and version level
Note: To eliminate confusion, identical systems are considered identical only
if they:
1. Are the exact machine type and models
2. Have the same BIOS level
3. Have the same adapters/attachments in the same locations
4.
Have the same address jumpers/terminators/cabling
5. Have the same software versions and levels
6. Have the same Reference/Diagnostics Diskette (version)
7. Have the same configuration options set in the system
8. Have the same setup for the operation system control files
Comparing the configuration and software set-up between
″
working
and non-working

systems will often lead to problem resolution.
