I had this problem before.   The pc board in the pc for the hmc went bad.  IBM 
had to replace the pc for the hmc.

Thanks

Reboot?
How???
Method 1: Logon to HMC and select Reboot. However no user can log on.
Method 2: unplug power from both power supplies. This is the thing I described 
already and I don't want to perform. Note: SE (Primary or
Alternate) is a guest virtual machine of HMC.
Method 3: please advice.

Last but not least: reboot does not solve the problem.
