rx7620 with new cell board does not boot

[Arnulf Gercke]

Hi,
I'm new to this forum and to the integrity servers. There's an rx7620 box with 1 cell board with 4x 1.5 GHz CPU. The cell board was replaced with a new one that has 4x 1.6 GHz CPU. The board is shown in mp, but OS (Win2k3)does not boot. So we turned back to the cell board with the 4x1.5 CPUs and there was no problem.
I think it has to do with Firmware Revisions,
and I found this patch: PF_COLYEIG0301. But I couldn't found our symptom in the description.
Is this patch the solution? Any other hint is greatly appreciated!

Hi Arnulf,

check via the MP with either the VFP command at what stage the new cell board stops or via the SL commandand then FPL and check their for the last couple of messages since the last boot, any entry higher then severity level 2 needs to be looked at closely.

I would prefer you get in touch with HP support on this and get the RX7620 updated to the last system F/W i.e.
