Re: Persistent POST (booting) System Alert message

Eric,

I rebooted the system with the tape installed and the Alert message still comes on. I reboot again, same thing.

Thanks ...

Re: Persistent POST (booting) System Alert message

hi charles,

As I said earlier, did you read the logs in the gsp and what did they say?
control B
SL
E
N to filter

This may give you an indication to any problem.

And until you have read them you will get the error.

Re: Persistent POST (booting) System Alert message

Yes,

Check GSP logs like Andy said, acknowledge the error messages and restart it. If it continues after that, you must see if the tape drive is well connected...

Re: Persistent POST (booting) System Alert message

Check the GSP console log but also you stated there is one message that is underneath another message on the screen. Try disabling these Alert Messages from displaying on the console, as outlined in ITRC Knowledge Base document KBRC00007966. Reboot and check the console again during boot for the messages that were overwritten by Alerts.

Re: Persistent POST (booting) System Alert message

Hi Guys,

Thanks for all your suggestion. I have check the GSP console log again and again. I think a fair option is really to disable this alert messages. Cheryl said something about that. But I was not able to exactly get the ITRC Knowledge Base document KBRC00007966.
Please, I need the procedure on how to disable "Alert Messages".

Cheers.

Re: Persistent POST (booting) System Alert message

hi,

the doc cheryl mentioned is above, just use the bits for disabling the error.
Not the full document as its for different alert level

Hi Rutter,

Please accept my huge tones of hugs. Thanks a great deal. I think, this is going to give me some temporary sleep.

Other guys, thanks a million for all the suggestion.

Cheers.

Hi Rutter,

Please, could you resend the procedure for disabling the alert messages to my email box: freepurchase@yahoo.com
I didn't quite get it before it was edited on the forum.

I will appreciate it greatly.

Cheers.
