Hi Fellow Managers

I have got some boot time problem with one of my
DEC 3000 M 400 Systems running OSF 3.2 and firmware
version 6.0

It doesn't happen always. but it happens once in
few reboots. The self test for ASIC fails and the
system doesn't boot. But if said boot at >>>
it boots without any problem after that. The running system
also seem to perform without any problem.

when the system test fails for ASIC this is what
is the system output

ASIC - ?? 002 0020

and for

>>> test asic

? T-ERR-ASIC - TC RESET
  address = d5400000 data read = 3 data exp = fa
  T-STS-ASIC- Failed status = 2a
?? 001 ASIC 0x002a

84 FAIL

The system info is

VPP PAL X5.48-82000101/OSF PAL X1.35 - 82000201 Built on 1-DEC-94 13:00:42:45

CPU - KN15-BA-V6.0-S7D4-I1DF-sV1.0 -DEC chip 21064 P3.0

OSC -133 MHz



Any pointers/help would be greatly appreciated.
