Re: Resetting internal modem without IPL

I think that in the same area that you can turn this on/off is an option 
to 'blink' the card.  Then you can verify that the led on the back of the 
card is blinking.  This is a confirmation that you are messing with the 
right card.

Re: Resetting internal modem without IPL











<snip>
Does anyone know if you can reset (maybe power off/on the card) the
internal modems (2791/2793) in a model 270, 800, 810 etc. other than by
IPL'ing the whole system ?

If your system supports concurrent maintenance you can reset the card by
itself from the hardware service manager in SST/DST.  Caution, do not do
that by yourself unless you are pretty sure of what you are doing.  Also,
it may not fix the entire problem because the IOP (most likely the 
embedded
one) may need to be reset as well.  If there are any disk units supported
by the IOP, and it needs to be reset, an IPL may be the only way out.

Paul's comment about the reset(*yes) option should work, and has most of
the time I have tried it.
