Failed RC script

[Troyan Krastev]

Hi all,

I have just updated my HP-UX 10.20 to HP-UX 11.00 and
I get this message in my /etc/rc.log file:

Copy processor logs to /var/tombstones
Output from "/sbin/rc1.d/S430pdcinfo start":
----------------------------
pdcinfo: ioctl( diag_fd, DIAG_PROC_HPAS, ... ) failed. : Invalid argument
pdcinfo: pdcinfo_main.c:445
ERROR: pdcinfo returned error status=255
"/sbin/rc1.d/S430pdcinfo start" FAILED

Any and all help greatly appreciated!

Troyan,

What kind of system is this? I'm wondering if it's a D220 or D320...because I don't think PDC will run on those. If that is the case...check out this thread:

I suspect thatyou may not have the 11 version of the pdcinfo program, or the diagnostics were not updated during the update.
You may also want to do:
swlist -l fileset -a state | grep -e install -e transient -e corrupt
and see if you get any filesets listed from this.
If you do, you need to rectify theses first.

Sorry, my box is:
HP-UX B.11.00 A 9000/898/K370.

I agree with Melvyn, you may simply need to upgrade your Firmware. Check out this thread:
