Locate a Faulty PCIe Card

Language:

You must determine which PCIe card is faulty before you replace it.

Check to see if any Server Service Required LEDs are lit or flashing.
See Front Panel Components (Service) and Interpreting LEDs.

In Oracle ILOM, verify that each PCIe card is recognized.
```
-> show /System/PCI_Devices/Add-on
 /System/PCI_Devices/Add-on
 	Targets:
 		Device_x
 		Device_y
...
->
```
where x, y, etc, are the slot numbers where PCIe cards are installed.

To verify that a single PCIe card is identified, type:
```
-> show /System/PCI_Devices/Add-on/Device_x
```
where x is the slot number where the PCIe card is installed.

If a PCIe card is not recognized, check its installation.

See Install a PCIe Card.

Verify that a PCIe card is faulty.
For example, type:
```
-> show faulty
Target              | Property               | Value
--------------------+------------------------+-------------------------------
/SP/faultmgmt/0     | fru                    | /SYS/MB/PCIE1
...
->
```
where y is 0 to 6.
- If a PCIe card is faulty, you will see /SYS/MB/PCIEy under the Value heading.
- If a FRU value different from /SYS/MB/PCIEy is displayed, see Component Service Task Reference to identify which component is faulty.

Use the Oracle ILOM faultmgmt shell to identify the faulty component.
See Identify Faulted Components.

Check the Fault class and Description fields for more information.
If a PCIe card is faulty, replace it.
See Remove a PCIe Card.

If you are unable to determine if a PCIe card is faulty, seek further information.
See Detecting and Managing Faults.
