rp5430 with failed processor

Hi everybody,

I have just setup a new HPUX rp5430 system. This server have been running for 2 month. Yesterday, I must reinstalled OS, but when booted from CDROM, I could not install (CDROM enclosed with server)and I received message from GSP:

"Source: Processor
Source ID: Processor General"

When I check from Information Main Command with pr commnad, I have message:
"Processor 0: Stopped, not responding
Processor 2: Active"
(I have dual Processor, one #0 and one #2).

I want to know if the Processor #0 have been failed
and
whether I can replace position of Processor #2 with failed Processor #0 or not ?.

I am looking forward to any help.
With many thanks to any help.
Best regards,

Hi,

you can do it. Remove the defective processor, and move the good processor to slot 0.

Re: rp5430 with failed processor

you can switch the two processors but if you do remove on of them you will have to put a Processor Terminator in the second slot. The machine will not work unless this terminator is in the second slot. The part number you need is A5570-62014.

You don't need a processor terminator in the rp5430 system. I beleive only the A-class servers require this.

Re: rp5430 with failed processor

The log you posted still shows two processors. You need to physically remove processor # 0 and put Processor # 2 in its place.

It's time to open up a support call. CPUs are not customer serviceable.
