Make sure that all the SCSI devices are set to the proper

and termination.)
Make sure that the system can communicate with the drive
as described in “Checking the SCSI IDs” in Appendix B.
Follow the instructions in “Dealing With a Boot Failure” in

If problems persist, contact your system administrator or call your designated service
representative.
