IBM ValuePoint - WaveRunner and Windsurfer fail in 6381
Applicable to: World-Wide
Symptom:
PS/ValuePoint 6381 (all models) fails to recognize an installed M-Wave Windsurfer Communication adapter (FRU p/n92f4020) or WaveRunner Digital Modem ISA adapter (FRU p/n73G1392) or the adapter fails to function as expected.
Problem Isolation Aids:
None
Fix:
Configure the WaveRunner or Windsurfer adapter card for interrupt 3 (IRQ 3) and disable serial port B in the system board. IRQ3 is the only interrupt supported for these adapters when installed in 6381 systems. If the WaveRunner or Windsurfer continues to fail when set to IRQ 3, inspect the riser card. If the riser card can be identified as FRU p/n52g7065, replace the riser using FRU p/n88G4178. FRU p/n88G4178 may be marked with manufacturing p/n88g4177.
Not all systems will experience problems with riser p/n52g7065 and only systems that fail when WaveRunner or Windsurfer adapters are configured for IRQ 3 should have risers replaced.
