AIX IPL progress codes
This section provides descriptions for the numbers and characters that display on the operator panel and
descriptions of the location codes used to identify a particular item.
Note:
The AIX IPL progress codes occur on only when running AIX or booting standalone diagnostics. The
codes do not occur on servers that run Linux or on Linux partitions.
Operator panel display numbers
This section contains a list of the various numbers and characters that display in the operator panel
display. There are three categories of numbers and characters. The first group tracks the progress of the
configuration program. The second group tracks the progress of the diagnostics. The third group provides
information about messages that follow an 888 sequence.
AIX configuration program indicators
The numbers in this list display on the operator panel as the system loads the AIX operating system and
prepares the hardware by loading software drivers.
Note:
Some systems may produce 4-digit codes. If the leftmost digit of a 4-digit code is 0, use the three
rightmost digits.

Dump progress indicators (dump status codes)
AIX IPL progress codes
The following dump progress indicators, or dump status codes, are part of a Type 102 message.
Note:
When a lowercase c is listed, it displays in the lower half of the character position. Some systems produce
4-digit codes, the two leftmost positions can have blanks or zeros. Use the two rightmost digits.

Note:
Some systems may produce 4-digit codes. If the leftmost digit of a 4-digit code is 0, use the three
rightmost digits.
The crash codes that follow are part of a Type 102 message. These crash codes are grouped into three
categories:
Category 1
Dump analysis is the appropriate first action in Problem Determination. Begin the Problem
Determination process with software support.
Category 2
Dump analysis most likely will not aid in Problem Determination. Begin the Problem
Determination process with hardware support.
Category 3
