Thx Mario, So much for a single command. It has resolved part one of my problems. Now i can access the VA but i still have problem powering it off from the power switch. I have a warning; WARNING : Power switch position sensors are reporting conflicting information.

Hi,

Power off of VA is not a good idea. I hope you have a good reason for that and your VA is not in production.

Have you done proper shutdown of VA? Usually, if I need to do that I use serial port.

This error means that your VA is little bit confused. It has two sensors which show different states of your power switch.

I know that sometimes that piece of plastic can cause a problem. You may have a problem with it.

Actually, that is not power off switch, it will put your VA into standby mode.

For power off you need to remove cables.

HTH,
Mario.
