ES40 serial console keeps dying...
hello,
I'm trying to configure an ES40 (not sure if model 1 or 2) for use in a TruCluster via the serial console. Unfortunately access to hardware is problematic (15-minute walk, request access-card for machine-room). The following happens:
I power on the machine, it successuflly goes through initialization, and finally arrives at SRM prompt "P00>>>". I can type commands etc, all looks OK. A while later I go back to that terminal and there is no response. Because of access problems, I don't know at this point what the system display is saying. I can get to the RMC console and that works fine. "status" and "env" both produce results that one would expect for a healthy system, with the possible exception that the last alert was "AC loss", as you can see below. Also "show power" at SRM console shows no problems. SInce I don't yet have Tru64 running on this machine, I don't know if only the console is failing, or it the console is just a symtom...
I upgraded the Firmware to 7.2-1.
if I use the RMC function "reset" to re-init the system, the SRC console "wakes up" again for a while, until the next time it decides to die. The timing seems to be unpredictable.
A RMC "halt in", "halt out" does not help. I have cleared the last RMC alert and am waiting for the next console death.
Does anyone have an idea what the cause of this problem might be?
thanks,
Rob Urban
