Hey all, Sorry for the delay. I've tried the O2k a number of times this week, to no response. The serial port is connected correctly, and I've verified with the MSC that everything is numbered properly and feeling fine. The problem as I see it now is that the system PROM, whichever first comes up, is not coming up at all. There is no hardware check, no flashing lights on the node boards, no hex numbers on the MSC. So that, in a way, excludes the possibility of the BaseIO having died. Though it does make my situation a little more grim. Questions: 1. Is there even a PROM on the midplane, if so where, and how do I get to it? 2. If I need a new midplane, where can I find one? I have an array vault and a pci card-cage with 1 fore ATM card to trade, if that helps.
I've run the system with a bunch of things pulled to see what's lighting up and what's not, and there are lights coming on on the midplane to indicate link up between N1 and I guess the router board, but no tests are made. Perhaps the prom is loose? Maybe? Anyway, let me know what you guys think, any ideas are welcome. -Dave -- [email protected] mailing list
