GSP Power-On command doesn't work

[Mauro Gatti]

Hi all,
after a forced shutodown cause by evironment overtemp I'm not able to switch on my server using GSP's PC menu.
Is it normal behaviour?
This is what I get from VFP and PC:

Thank You

Hi Mauro Gatti,
Please give the exact model of your server.

Normally for RP series servers,
You have to go to CM menu from GSP & give PE ( power Entity option ) & it will ask you whether you need to do operations on Cabinet or Cell. Respond accordingly.


Hope this will help you..

Thanks & Regards,

Shameer

My server is an A-class.
My GSP version is:
Hardware Revision 8 Firmware Revision A.01.10
and there is any PE menu but only:

Is it possible I have to upgrade GSP firmware?

Hi,

Before doing PC on/off,

run PS to check the power enable/disabled status for the Parts.

you may enable the Power by

MP>PE

select...

ON/OFF

Hi,

It seems that the platform monitor has disabled the "power on" on account of overtemperature condition. You need to wait for a while to cool the server down and ensure proper surrounding enviorment for tempreture etc. Refer following link.
http://docs.hp.com/en/2411/rp24xx_customer.pdf

Option "PE" is not an option in the firmware for your server.
Check the GSP -> SL as well.

As far as the GSP firmware upgrade is concerned, the latest GSP A firmware version is A.01.12. It is always recommended to have latest firmware installed in the server.
