Symptom Action
The SMS configuration list or boot sequence
selection menu shows more SCSI devices
attached to a controller/adapter than are
actually attached.
A device may be set to use the same SCSI bus
ID as the control adapter. Note the ID being
used by the controller/adapter (this can be
checked or changed through an SMS utility),
and verify that no device attached to the
controller is set to use that ID.
If settings do not appear to be in conflict:
1. Replace the SCSI cable.
2. Replace the device.
3. Replace the SCSI adapter (or system board
if connected to one of the two integrated
SCSI controllers on the system board). (See
system board note 3 on page 37 if the
system board is replaced.)
Note: In a ″twin-tailed″ configuration where
there is more than one initiator device (normally
another system) attached to the SCSI bus, it
may be necessary to change the ID of the
SCSI controller or adapter with the System
Management Services.
The System Management Services menu is
displayed.
The device or media you are attempting to boot
from may be faulty.
1. Check the SMS error log for any errors. To
check the error log:
a. Choose error log.
b. If an error is logged, check the time
stamp.
c. If the error was logged during the
current boot attempt, record it.
d. Look up the error in “Firmware
Checkpoints” on page 85 and do the
listed action.
e. If no recent error is logged in the error
log, continue to the next step below.
2. Go to “Boot Problems and Concerns” on
page 96.
You have a problem that does not prevent the
system from booting.
