Knowledge Article: ID B00022005: Primary MM primary file system failed.

Description

The primary firmware image for the primary advanced management module failed during built-in self test (BIST); the image might be corrupt. The advanced management module runs the backup firmware image, which might not be the same level as the primary image.

Causes

The BIST checks which file system is used.

Implications

Using the secondary file system instead of the primary file system generates this event.

Resolutions

Perform these steps:

1. Update the firmware for the advanced management module. After updating the firmware, restart the advanced management module.
   
2. Generate a manual call home using Service Advisor to replace the advanced management module.
