When powering up, the Run light start blinking until becomes solid. Cannot ping it from network, no console message. This is a rack mount flat box. It used to boot up fine. Can somebody give me a diagnoitic according to what I descibed?
If not you may have an incorrectly set console, check to where the cable is plugged in. It should be plugged to a three way cable with the selection of console.
Hi Jun, What type of console are you using, terminal console or web console?
If you look at the HP-UX startup the network card initializes at a later stage and you would be able to ping the machine only after the network card gets initialized.
So what you see is when the light is blinking the machine is still booting and you dont see any messages on console because it is normal. Let you know if you have any more queries.
