rx7640 problem
Hello Everyone,
im facing a problem with an rx7640 server that didn't succeed to boot with the attached console log.
Can anyone provide me some help on how to identify the source of the problem in order to proceed with the troubleshooting? Any suggestion is much appreciated.
I already checked physical components (PSU, fans, ...) via MP and everything looks normal.
It also shows after crash a dumping process and its progress in % however after completion it restarts automatically. How can we see the dump results?
Regards

Re: rx7640 problem
Looks like your system crashed again, very early in the HP-UX OS boot process. Since this crash happened before the crash dump functionality was set up, no second dump could be generated.
The console messages indicate there was a Cache/Memory error of some kind: that suggests a hardware issue.
The first dump was stored in raw binary format in the configured dump area (by default, the primary swap LV /dev/vg00/lvol2 is also used as a dump area, but that can be changed). If you need that dump for analysis, you might have to move the system disk to another HP-UX system, import the VG and then use the crashutil command to produce a set of dump files that is readable by the usual crash dump analysis tools.
If you have a support agreement with HP, this would be a great time to open a hardware support call and let the hardware support people sort this out. The console messages in your attachment may be very useful to HP's hardware engineers, too.

Re: rx7640 problem
Thanks for your reply and btw as suggested to move the system disk to another HP-UX system and import the VG and then use the crashutil command, could you provide some tips on that?
In fact, the boot disk is mirrored (2 physical disks) on this server so in this case i just pull out one disk of this mirror and plug it on another system with same OS version however, how to proceed with the import? as on the host disk there is already a vg00. I was searching and found the "vgimport" command. Is it the right command to be used?
Thanks in advance
