Indications:
FPC will not come online and operational
Alarm FPC hard errors and BIST alarm is reported
This is due to a memory error not passing diagnostic self test of the Hybrid Memory Cube during boot up.
Perform these steps to determine the cause and resolve the problem (if any). Continue through each step until the problem is resolved.
Collect the show command output.
Capture the output to a file (in case you have to open a technical support case). To do this, configure each SSH client/terminal emulator to log your session.
show log messages show log chassisd start shell network pfe <fpc#> show nvram show syslog messages exit
Analyze the show command output.
In the 'show log messages', review the events that occurred at or just before the appearance of the "reports CM err HMC BIST has detected error" message. Frequently these events help identify the cause.
RMA is required
While waiting for hardware replacement, please configure power off with the following configuration change:
'set chassis fpc <slot> power off'
Contact your technical support representative.
