Hello,
Just got a refurbished Pseries when I boot the machine , everything is okay, that is no attention light and panel shows
01 B N
but there is nothing on the display ( monitor / console ) which is plugged into the video card port of pseries. The display is empty....
The keyboard doesn't work ie., if it press NUM Lock or CAPS Lock, no lights come up, and the optical mouse also doesn't work ( no light in the mouse )
How can I troubleshoot this issue ?

Apparently looks like HMC issue.
Probably HMC was connected on this system and now have to make it forget to use the console
Link doesn't work. Anyone have access to how to get HMC removed , please share here.

This connection is only active if the box is not currently connected to HMC or was connected to it in the last 14 days. If you see HMC=1 or HMC=0 on the LED screen you will not be able to get serial connection. You can reset the service processor and make it forget its HMC connection. See IBM for more information. |
