The document discusses SRCs (System Reference Codes) that appear during an IPL (Initial Program Load) on IBM systems. SRCs indicate the status and progress of the IPL and can help analyze problems. It provides a list of example SRCs and describes the functions they represent.

SRCs appear on the control panel during an IPL and indicate the status of the IPL. They track the progress of the IPL and the loading and initialization of components. SRCs are often useful for problem analysis if issues arise during the IPL.

Some example SRCs provided are C1xx 1006-1019 which indicate the service processor is attempting to load RAM from different devices. C100 D009 indicates the LIC is running initialization. C200 SRCs track initialization phases for secondary partitions. C600 SRCs track DST and LIC initialization phases.

System Reference Codes

IPL SRC Format Description:

As the system performs an IPL, SRCs appear on the control panel. The SRCs indicate the status of the IPL and are often useful in problem
analysis. The following list provides information on the IPL process and shows some SRCs (in numeric order) that can appear during an IPL.
