SOLUTION SUMMARY:
- Troubleshooting:
The dump header tells us that this Dstop was generated by dsmd (lines 10,11)
while a domain was active. This is also evident by the dumpf file name -
dsmd.dstop files are created by dsmd as part of an ASR. Walking the
error chain:
- Master SDI on EX8 calls for Dstop as directed by itself (line 18)
- Master SDI on EX8 detects a DTransID input parity error for
Slot 0 (line 20).
- SB8 is FAILed from the configuration (line 23)
- SB8 and EX8 are named as primary and secondary FRUs (lines 24,25)
The SDC on a L1 board and the SDI exchange DTransID and DTarg information.
The data exchange is parity protected. Since these pathways cross an
interconnect, a single FRU cannot be isolated. Suspect components ar
SB8 and EX8.
- Resolution:
Replace SB8. If errors persist, replace EX8.

- Additional background information:
DTransIDs are used for arbitration, deriving data path steering, and
data identification (tags). The SDC must request access to use the data
bus to the SDI. When granted, the SDC supplies the target information
and generates parity. The SDI receives the information and checks
parity. A parity error constitutes a Dstop.
The arbitration connections between the SDI and SDC on a Slot 0 board
are as follows:
slt0_datareqin_l Unidirectional SDC request to use bidirectional path
slt0_datareqout_l High Priority request to SDC to get off the data path
in 2 cycles
slt0_data_l<1:0> Bidirectional data status (not part of arbitration)
slt0_dtarg_l Bidirectional Read/Write bit (write operation when asserted)
slt0_dtransid_l<8:0> Bidirectional data tag and arbitration steering information
slt0_dataidp_l Unidirectional parity on above signals. Generated only by
the SDC and sent to the SDI for checking
In the case of a parity error, the wfail provides an indication of the
faulty signal (line 21), but the overall diagnosis is as above.
