(A1xxxxxx) Service processor reference (attention) codes

An A1xxxxxx system reference code (SRC) is an attention code posted by the service processor. An A1xxxxxx SRC offers information about a platform or service processor dump, confirms a control panel function request, or indicates an issue with a service processor wake-on-LAN setting.

The A1xxxxxx table uses the following format:

  • The first column, SRC, contains numbers that identify a particular action your server performs during initialization of firmware.
  • The second column, Description/Action, offers a brief description about this SRC. It might also contain instructions for continuing the problem analysis.
  • The third column, Failing item, offers a link to service actions for recovering from a hang on an attention code. Click the failing item code only when you experience a hang condition on an attention code. For example, a hang condition occurs when your server performs a requested action but the SRC in the control panel display does not change for several minutes and the service processor appears to be hung.
If you do not find an SRC in the table that follows, contact your next level of support for assistance.
Notes:
  1. The SRCs on this page are from the Power Systems hardware documentation, and the Descriptions apply to a single CEC enclosure or I/O enclosure. The Action and Failing Item fields are modified as appropriate for DS8000® architecture and repair methods.
  2. SRCs missing from the following tables might be found on the Power Systems online documentation. You can use the SRC description as is to define the problem. Do not use the Action and Failing Item without contacting the next level of support first.
