Unable to warm boot J2240

[Denny Denekas]

I justupgraded a J2240 to 11.0 and also upgraded the firmware to 2.1. The problem is on a cold boot the system will search and find the bootable device and come up. When you Reboot the system with either the /etc/reboot or shutdown -r the system continues to search for the boot device and cannot locate.
Any ideas of what is going on?

What type of errors do you get?

What happens if you interrupt the boot process and do a SEA at the ISL prompt?

Any messages in /var/adm/syslog/syslog.log about problems with the disk drive?

This isn't much to go on, but I'd lean towards a problem with the disk drive.

hi

have you cheked the bootconf file in /etc.

It's possible that is corrupt

[Denny Denekas]

Can escape and do a search at console menu and boot. Did not see any error messages.

For the first step, try to boot in single user mode.

Check the message in /var/adm/syslog.log and
check the /etc/bootconf file.

You can check the /etc/shutdown.log file.
