gsp superdome: cannot bump user with ^ecf

[Herwarth Heitmann]

hello,

cannot get access to the console on the superdome. vpars are running on that console. 3 npars live on the superdome and only 1 npar console gives troube. resetting the gsp did not work. i get the following error when trying ^ecf

[Bumped user - ï .]

[Forced to spy mode by user - Admin.]

any help is appreciated

If you have access to the big box you can perform an hardware gsp reset

[Herwarth Heitmann]

box is located on a different site. can i force a reset remotely?

[paolo barila]

did you try ?

stty +resetGSP < /dev/GSPdiag1

[Herwarth Heitmann]

yes no success:

# stty +resetGSP < /dev/GSPdiag1
/usr/bin/ksh: /dev/GSPdiag1: cannot open

i can still connect to te console, only not the console from that particular npar

Did you try to change to other running vPars on this nPar using CTRL A?

I would not use the console to access such a lot of different systems(different nPars with vPars), there is a enormous chance to getting totally confused (where I am?).

Use a direct telnet/ssh session to the OS instance instead.

BTW, reset the GSP by

MP:CM> XD

Hi,

I agree with Torsten.
You need to use ctrl-a to access individual vpars.
I always set up the prompt to show just *which* vpar I'm on.
As he stated it can become quite confusing when vpars or added to npars.

Rgds,

pfff

ofcourse we use ssh to do normal operational tasks.... we are professionals come on!
i need the console to bring some vpars in single user mode, that's why i use the console.

ctrl a is not working on the npar console which is hanging. other npar consoles do work.

Well then you've got a term type issue.
But I'm sure you knew that & how to deal with it, being professional & all....

Cheers,
Jeff

[Herwarth Heitmann]

it is NOT an term issue, because it worked before and is still working on other NPAR consoles (same console btw). hp didn't even knew the answer.trying a hardreset of the gsp tomorrow at site....
