Hi,

Hi,
Accepting that you are trying this from console only.
What does stty or stty -a command gives
I think the cntrl B is set to some other options.

hi,

notice from the ioscan output that the device file, /dev/GSPdiag1 is missing from hardware path 0/0/4/0?

# insf -H 0/0/4/0
to install special device file
# ioscan -fnC tty
to check if the device file, /dev/GSPdiag1 appear this time.

then try accessing GSP again.

regards.

Hi Rudy !

reading your information, i suggest :
1) if "operation is not allowed", may be you are not logged root ...
2) it seems that /dev/GSPdiag1 does not exist on your system (not output on ioscan), so better try stty +resetGSP I just try on my server and stty must exactly output "GSP reset succeeded."
3) a last solution : you have a "GSP Reset" button behind the rp54xx server.

Please don't forget to ASSIGN POINTS : it is very important for us to know if response helps you (or not !!) and you will have more chance to receive responses !

insf -H 0/0/4/0
once i issued this command and retire ioscan -fnC tty sma e output
and also # stty +resetGSP This operation is not permitted.
still the same thing
and i looke to the back of the server to the gsp card no resett button
so now i am lost how to process

thank you really thanks guys

[Olivier Decorse]

1) what is the exact output of the stty command ?
2) try "id" to confirm your unix identity ? Are you root ?
3) try "ls -l /dev/GSPdiag2" for displaying right access ? Send us the output.
4) on my rp24xx, the GSP reset is directly on the box, NOT on the GSP card ... According to HP docs, it seems that the rp54xx GSP does not have any hardware reset (http://www.docs.hp.com/hpux/onlinedocs/A5191-96022/A5191-96022.html) !?

hi,

Yes rp5400 servers do have the hard GSP button on it. But its on th card and can't be done from outside, you need to open the top cover, then the side cover to the right of the server facing the front.
and you can easily see the GSP card and the hard reset switch

with best wishes

thank again and again

[Olivier Decorse]

Sorry, i mean : what is the exact output of the "stty +resetGSP
It seems that the GSP device have the good rigths ...

Are you really root ? check with "id".

As Naveej says, you can reset the GSP, opening the server.

Olivier.

[rudy_4]

# stty +resetGSP This operation is not permitted.
# id
uid=0(root) gid=3(sys) groups=0(root),1(other),2(bin),4(adm),5(daemon),6(mail),7(lp),20(users)

ok but do u think that resetting the gsp will work

[Joseph Loo]

i did more research:

http://www1.itrc.hp.com/service/cki/docDisplay.do?docLocale=en_US&docId=200000072570316

the above seems to be what u r experiencing. u may have to do a firmware upgrade on the GSP if after "hardware" reset, GSP still does not work.

[Olivier Decorse]

Someone had the same problem as you http://forums1.itrc.hp.com/service/forums/questionanswer.do?threadId=45715

Solution :
use the reset button on the GSP card ...

Olivier.

[Joseph Loo]

so, is your problem solve by hardware GSP resetting?

regards.

[Jon Steele · Accepted solution]

Rudy,
The reset button on the gsp card is on the side of the card in the machine.You will need to take the side panel off.Then you will see a red gsp reset button.If this does not work I would think your gsp card went bad,as we have had the same problem before.When we changed out the gsp card it worked fine.

Jon

[rudy_4]

soory to keep you still guys does the system have to be shutdown or no need

[Joseph Loo]

there is no need to shutdown. as long as u r able to find that GSP reset button. reset it and it should work.

regards.

[rudy_4]

ok i done that and it gave the press ctrl b but i couldnt press the ctrl b
but i was reading something on the internet and i noticed that they said that the console cable is not right that some one is using a null modem cable for the console and i think i m also using a null modem could this be a problem

[rudy_4]

ok one more thing can you access gsp from remote machine i think no but any one know anything about it

[Joseph Loo]

hi,

as I am unable to tell what is happening without actually looking at your server, please read "Chapter 4: Cable Connections" -> Guardian Service Processor from this pdf:

http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bc/docs/support/SupportManual/c00044153/c00044153.pdf

regards.

[Olivier Decorse]

Hello Rudy,

Of course you can access to your GSP from any other box ! That's what i do every day !On the rp54xx documentation (http://www.docs.hp.com/hpux/onlinedocs/A5191-96022/A5191-96022.html ), chapter "Cabling & Power Up", Section "Core I/O Connections", you can see the GSP Lan Connector (number 1 on the picture). Just use a normal cable, like the one you use for the 10/100 base T (number 5 on the picture).

Before this, just modify the GSP configuration with "LS" to see the actual Lan Status, then "LC" to configure the Lan GSP (ip @, mask, @ of the gateway, etc). Use the "XD" command with "R" to reset and write the new configuration.

Then, from any other PC, you can telnet your GSP ip adress. "GSP>" prompt will appear, just type to have write access on this remote console !!!

After this, it is better to use the "SO" command, to add an user and a password, for the GSP security.

Good luck !
Olivier.

[rudy_4]

one last question question i have a modem that i wanna set it up for the server to phone me in case of emergency can i connect it to the gsp remote or i have to get a serial card

[Olivier Decorse]

Can you first give us your feed back about the Lan access of your GSP, with the Lan cable ?

Olivier.
