Re: JS12 startup progress - or lack thereof

LOL Pete

Just went through the whole day yesterday with Vess - most excellent session. We did talk about you a little - only nice things! The Internet connection here has been so abominable that I'm sure he could not get to a lot of emails.

He did say that with your setup, one can start after all the first parts - not sure if it is easy to identify where that is, have not looked at the README yet.

Now to go home and report to Richard!

Hmmm.

The AMM shows this for I/O modules:

Bay 1 (Copper PM)*
Bay 2 (no module installed)
Bay 3 (SAS Conn Mod)*
Bay 4 (no module installed)

Under advanced configuration for Copper PM, there is only a "show Post Results" which says:
"Module completed POST successfully."

But SOL still shows "Enabled" and "Not Ready". No joy (yet!).

Turns out that Vess is at giving a presentation at Common Focus (bummer I couldn't go!)
If someone is down there at Focus (thats you, Vern [yes?]), have Vess check his email!!

I think that is the issue as well. If I get a break while on this trip
I may try to call IBM and see if they can help me with the "Not Ready"
status on the SOL. Hopefully I won't have to be standing in front of
the BCS to fix that and can just fix it remotely using the AMM. It
*seems* like a configuration issue. Hopefully, easy to fix.

"I would like to add that the Ethernet switch module have to be in the
I/O module bay 1, otherwise SOL is not working."

So this may be related with the fact that you can't get a link up with
your copper passthrough module.
