Note: Use the physical address information to locate a device or card that is
within the system unit.
Sequence number
The sequence number increases by two each time an entry is placed in the log.
Secondary code
The secondary code is a 4-byte hexadecimal value that provides additional detailed
entry information. The secondary code can be the I/O adapter return code that is
used for communications protocol or Licensed Internal Code problems. The
secondary code is used for problem analysis.
Table ID
The table ID identifies a group of reference codes for the system or device. See the
Problem Analysis information for your system or the device service information for
a complete listing of reference codes.
IPL source/state
The IPL source indicates the IPL mode (A, B, or D) that was selected at the time
the entry was logged.
The state shows the system status at the time the entry was logged. The values of
the State field include:
0 (Not used)
1 During IPL
2 During power down
3 System in full paging
4 During diagnostic tests
5 Occurred prior to IPL
6 During DST
7 System in limited paging
8 System in pre-limited (static) paging

Hexadecimal report
Press F6 (Display hexadecimal report) to view the hexadecimal dump information
(see Figure 50 on page 112). This function is optional for this report, but it might
provide additional information. Figure 46 on page 109 shows an example of the
first page of information logged in the hexadecimal dump.
Note: If a character in the EBCDIC field cannot be displayed, a period (.) displays
instead of that character.
To interpret the information in the hexadecimal dump, read the Description column
in Table 7 on page 116 or Table 8 on page 116 until you find the item you want (for
example, reference code). Read across to the leftmost column to find the
hexadecimal offset.
