rx6600

[Jon Steele]

Hi,

I have an rx6600 I just installed a new I/O PCI-e backplane. The machine boots up fine and works but I keep getting this error right before it goes to the EFI.
Warning(52)A Rom Revision is inconsistent with FIT or RevBlock

Has anyone seen this before?

Thanks
Jon

The warning indicates one of the firmware entities like SFW, BMC or MP revisions is out of date.

I would check the firmware revisions using
Shell> info fw

Thanks I updated the firmware and it took care of the problem.

Thanks

Hi Jon,

I have seen this today after replacing the I/O board of a rx6600 server.

This boot experienced the following problems:
WARNING[52]: A ROM revision is inconsistent with FIT or REVBLOCK

together with a massage

3 0 0x00025A 0x000000000000000C component rom revision != rev block revision

The firmware components on the new board were newer than the firmware on the remaining parts - in fact BMC firmware was the problem.

The system reached the boot menu, but any attempt to proceed (going to EFI for example) results in a crash.

Solution was to install the old board again, update the firmware and install the new board again.

Hope this helps someone in future.
