Test the management
console by using
the procedures in MAP6530 Testing the management console. Select Extended > Fixed Disks. Use the on screen
options to run all the tests to the hard drive. Return here when
the test is complete.
Exchange the FRUs called by the diagnostics one
at a time. For FRU removal and replacement instructions,
refer to the hardware maintenance manual that is on the IBM® DS8000® series
Service Documents CDROM for
your specific hardware platform (eServer or laptop).
Retest the hard disk drive. Did the disk drive test fail?
Yes, call for assistance.
No, continue with the next step.
If you exchanged the disk drive and there are jumpers or
tab settings on the new disk drive, ensure they are set the same as
the old drive. If there is a SCSI cable-terminating resistor device,
ensure it is secured to the cable and, if necessary, reattached to
its original location on the PC. Continue with the next step.
If you exchanged the disk drive, restore the management
console image
to the new disk drive. Refer to Reloading the Hardware Management
Console Image.
If the tests run without errors, turn off the PC power and
then turn on the power. Ensure that the system boots and the management
console screen
displays.
