(B1xxxxxx) Service processor firmware reference codes

A B1xxxxxx reference code indicates that an exception occurred in a service processor firmware-detected operation. To resolve any B1xxxxxx reference code, determine if the SRC requires a service action or if it is informational in nature (which does not require a service action).

If the B1xxxxxx SRC is displayed in a serviceable event, use the following links to see the appropriate information:
If the B1xxxxxx SRC was not displayed in a serviceable event, use Table 1.
  1. In the first column of the table, find the entry that indicates the location where you found the SRC.

AIX error log (Only PE/PFE has access to this) After you find a B1xxxxxx SRC in the AIX error log, look in the AIX diagnostics results log.
Advanced system management interface (ASMI) (Only use when directed by PE/PFE if serviceable event is not available.) Use the ASMI functions to display detailed information about the nature of the SRC.
Note: For more information, see MAP6F00 Accessing the ASMI.
