282.0. "problems decoding SDD theory-codes" by HLFS00::RD_VDWIEL () Mon Mar 10 1997 08:58


	We have some problems decoding SDD theory-codes from
	$DIA/ANA on a Alphaserver1000 (Mikasa)

>    Evidence:  TBD

	If you look for "5033C.4.2.6" you will find only
	a pointer to MIKASA.ZZ
	At MIKASA.ZZ you'll only find a table.

	How do these things relate??

	I cannot find anything in the documentation.

	Peter,


   I need to know the DECevent version number. In the meantime I will run it
past the developer.

	If you use the Decoder and enter all of the theory number it
will indicate the High, Medium, and Low possibility FRU's for the errors
reported. The report indicates multiple errors with the same event type of
Correctable memory.

    The table you refer to can be broken down to indicate 5033C
Mikasa Memory single event errors. The 4.2.6-1 a references in the specification
and have no bearer on the callout. 

The fields seperated by : indicate the hi.med.low probability fru. The theory
you display indicate 1,2,99 ie High, memory, unknown, the 3;1;99 indicates low
cpu unknown and the 3;5;99 inidates low, motherboard, unknown.

282.3make this clear in the article!HLFS00::RD_VDWIELTue Mar 11 1997 00:3311

	Please make this clear in the information in the article.

	I asked several support-engineers and none know the
	answer.!!!!

	If you put this info in the MIKASA.ZZ article it would
	be helpful for all of us.

282.4Is there some documentationHLFS00::RD_VDWIELThu Mar 13 1997 01:007

	Is there some documentation about this SDD theory descriptions

	How to interpret it etc.

	Peter,


   I am not aware of any doc's on theory decode. They expect you to feed the
theory and perform the repair plan. The information I used to decode the theory
you listed is the same table. I will include a copy of what I used in the next 
entry.

                          Syndrome_VER.VER 


                             Version .6



ABSTRACT: The purpose of this specification is to define tables
          of codes for a portion of the Syndrome Code. The values
          within these tables are to be used by all authors of 
          Symptom Directed Diagnosis programs and STAR's articles. 
          This will prevent someone assigning Syndrome Codes for
          one device to pick a code that is already being used
          for another device.

    This standard will be kept within the CMS library as Syndrome_ver.ver
The legal characters are the following: "0" through "9" and "A" through "Z"
except the letter "O". This allows 35 possible characters for each of the 
24 positions within the Syndrome code. 
    The first 6 characters are defined within the tables that follow. 
The last 18 characters of the Syndrome code can be used however the DE 
wishes to use them within the following constraints.

1. The number is to be broken into fields using the "." character as 
   the only legal delimiter.

2. No field will be larger then 5 characters long.

3. The letter "O" can not be used since it can look too much like 
   the number "0".

new style Syndrome Codes because the new style Syndrome codes will start
with a field of 5 characters followed by a "."

The following characters have been used. If you need to add another character, 
reserve Syndrome_ver.ver from the CMS library, add the character to the 
appropriate table and define what it is to be used for. Then replace 
Syndrome_ver.ver back into the CMS library.
