    APAR#: MB00732
    Component: 9400DG4PH - PLATFORM FIRMWARE
    Release(s): R001, R530, R999

    Abstract
    LIC-INCORROUT DISPLAY CEC PROPERTIES FAILS FOR ISERIES
    INTEGRATE

    Error Description
    Integrated xSeries Adapters (ixa) contained in a
    Integrated
    xSeries Server tower connected to a 570 can not be
    assigned to a
    lpar using the HMC. Depending on the version of the
    HMC, the
    unit may not appear or may cause a HMC error when
    accessing
    hardware resource properties. Errors may include:

    hscl251D "get I/o unit info error" (managed system
    properties)
    HSCL8016 (lshwres command)

    The problem can be confirmed by attempting to list
    hardware
    resources for the unit. Listing slot resources on the
    unit
    returns an empty phys_loc value.

    Example:

    lshwres -m "9406-570*1234567" -r io --rsubtype slot
    --filter
    "units=UTMP0.002.1234567"

    unit_phys_loc=UTMP0.002.0120948,bus_id=24,phys_loc=,drc_index=21
    010018

    ,lpar_id=none,slot_io_pool_id=none,description=I/O
    Processor,

    feature_codes=none,pci_vendor_id=0000,pci_device_id=0000,

    pci_subs_vendor_id=0000,pci_subs_device_id=0000,pci_class=0000,

    pci_revision_id=00,bus_grouping=0,iop=1,parent_slot_drc_index=21
    010018,

    drc_name=UTMP0.002.1234567-SE1-SE1

    Problem Conclusion

    Temporary Fix

    Displaying CEC properties through Hardware Management
    Console
    will not fail for iSeries Integrated xSeries Adapters.
