Explanation
The canister was unable to read vital product data
(VPD) from the enclosure. The canister requires this data to be able
to initialize correctly.
User Response
Follow troubleshooting procedures to fix the hardware:
- Check errors reported on the other node canister in this enclosure
(the partner canister).
- If it is reporting the same error, follow the hardware remove and replace procedure to replace
the enclosure midplane.
- If the partner canister is not reporting this error, follow the hardware remove and replace
procedure to replace this canister.
Note: If a newly installed system has this error on both node
canisters, the data that needs to be written to the enclosure will
not be available on the canisters; contact IBM support for the WWNNs
to use.
Remember: Review the lsservicenodes output for what the
node is reporting.
