PC Server 300/310/320/520 - System traps/hangs with 16MB OKI parity SIMM installed
Applicable to: World-Wide
Abstract: SYSTEM TRAPS/HANGS WITH 16MB OKI PARITY SIMM INSTALLED
SYMPTOM:
Intermittent trap errors, system hangs or system reboots. The problem may be highly intermittent or may fail often enough to prevent installation or use the operating system.
This symptom may be experienced on any brand system compatible with 16MB Industry Standard SIMM's.
PROBLEM ISOLATION AIDS:
Affected systems:
All systems which use Industry Standard SIMM's are potentially affected, if SIMM's which meet the following description are installed:
OKI 16 MB Parity SIMM, Option P/N 92G7204, FRU P/N60G2950, identified by the following markings on the 8 data modules on the front side of the simm:
OKI Japan
M5117400xxxxxx Note: x = any character
YYYxxxxxxxx
If the 2nd line on the data modules shows the above number and if the YYY in the third line is less than 520, the SIMM is in the affected range.
No other OKI SIMM is affected.
FIX:
If the symptoms as described above are being experienced, and the system has OKI 16MB PARITY SIMM's which meet the above description installed, replaced them with FRU P/N60G2950. All affected SIMMs were marketed only as Options. No IBM systems were manufactured with this SIMM. The affected SIMM's have been purged from FRU stock.
