Superdome console problem

[R.O.]

Hello,

I have a superdome with 8 partitions; The console
runs fine in all the partitions except in one of them. In this partition, when I access the console, it does nothing (no prompt). Is there any way of "reset" the console only for this par?

Regards,

Hi RO ,

You can try :

# stty +resetGSP < /dev/GSPdiag1

to reset GSP and to login.


Cheers,
Raj.

Hi,
you can try to reset the GSP:

run "cm" to go to command mode,

"xd" and then "r" to reset.

If you can telnet to partition that have the problem you can try to kill the "console" process.

The indication that you are able to access the other partitions via the same MP/GSP shows that there is nothing wrong with the GSP itself.. the issue is with the console session of that partition..

Can you let us know ?
a) Are you using vpar or it is a npar ?
b) login via a normal telnet session to the os session on that partition.. check for any running console sessions
# ps -ef | grep -i console
# who
compare the output and you can check if anyone has left a hung session..
c) from the mp> cm >who command you will come to know the number of connections to the gsp.. see which one is valid/hung..
