IBM ValuePoint - 11xx serial port diagnostic errors

Applicable to: World-Wide

Symptom:
PS/ValuePoint 6381/Si may fail with false 11XX errors when the serial port diagnostics tests are performed, using PS/ValuePoint Type 3 Advanced Diagnostics Vers. 1.00.

Problem Isolation Aids:
-The serial ports operate properly.
-The system fails only when using the PS/ValuePoint advanced diagnostics Type 3 Vers. 1.00.
-The failure will occur almost immediately into the port test routine.
-No other diagnostic routine on the diagnostic diskette is affected.

Fix:
Do not replace any hardware. These are false errors reported by the diagnostic routines.
The 6381/SI advanced diagnostic diskette and the pre-loaded "Diskette factory" on the 6381/SI systems have been updated to eliminate these false errors.
Obtain the latest Type 3 diagnostic diskette Vers. 1.01 or higher.
