IBM IntelliStation M Pro (Type 6889)/Netfinity3500 - SCSI BIOS error: "SCSI Termination Not Found" (Non-US Geographies ONLY)
Applicable to: AP-N, AP-S, Canada, EMEA, LA
SYMPTOM:
When booting the system, the SCSI BIOS returns the following, or similar error message:
"SCSI Termination Not Found"
The SCSI subsystem will not be enabled.
PROBLEM ISOLATION AIDS:
This tip applies to IBM IntelliStation M Pro Series 6889 and Netfinity 3500 Series 8644 systems.
The "SCSI Termination Not Found" error message will manifest itself as an "out-of-box" error in new systems preconfigured for SCSI operation.
In systems preconfigured for IDE operation, the SCSI error message may not be seen until the on-board SCSI BIOS is enabled in the F1 Setup utility, and a SCSI hardfile is installed.
Planar FRU numbers exposed to this condition are P/N93H7269 and P/N08L0046.
FIX:
Follow normal problem determination steps to eliminate possible SCSI adapter, SCSI cable, or SCSI hardfile errors.
If the "SCSI Termination Not Found" error persists, replace the system board with FRU P/N08L0606.
Note: When servicing Netfinity 3500, Type 8644-1xx/2xx systems, see Retain Tip number H106654 for instructions on planar replacement, and saving the CMOS configuration.
