- showstatus output :

No failures found in System Initialization.


- the XSB is reported as "Testing" in the showboards output :

XSCF> showboards -v -a
XSB  R DID(LSB) Assignment  Pwr  Conn Conf Test    Fault    COD
---- - -------- ----------- ---- ---- ---- ------- -------- ----

01-0  01(00)   Assigned    y    n    n    Unknown Normal   n  


This problem is mainly reported when the domain is composed of one XSB, either in uni or quad mode.
In a multi-XSB configuration domain (mulitple uni-XSB or quad-XSB), the chances to have one CPU being able to start are higher. This CPU will detect the problem
and the XSCF will report the error via FMA.
