TP 310,315 - Intermittent Problems

Applicable to: World-Wide

Intermittent Problems:
Intermittent system hang problems can be caused by a variety of reasons that have nothing to do with a hardware defect, such as cosmic radiation, electrostatic discharge, or software errors. FRU replacement should only be considered when a recurring problem exists.

When analyzing the intermittent problem, do the following:
1. Run the diagnostic test for system board at least 10 times.
2. If no error is detected, do not replace any FRUs.
3. If any error is detected, replace the FRU. Rerun the test to verify that there are no more errors.
