520 Attention Light was:UPS attachment problem on i5 520

[kirkg@xxxxxxxxxxxxx]

About 2 weeks ago I installed a new 520 for a client. It was one of those 
where Manufacturing had left it set for HMC=0 even though it was a Twinax 
Console. I called support and they walked me through resetting thing via 
ASMI and finally had me pull the FSP NVRAM Battery to flush things there. 

Anyway the Attention Light was on from the first power up. So I went in 
via SST to turn it off. The F6 option was there, I took it and then the 
F10 to Confirm. The screen comes back with the F6 still there and the 
light still on. So after a couple more retries to check my sanity and 
keystrokes no change. Called support and they tell me there was a recent 
PMR regarding not getting the F6 to Acknowledge the errors.. Well I guess 
the latest firmware fixed it good...

Still waiting on a fix from IBM... The Attention Light worked just fine 
for 15+ years

Here's the entire PMR I had opened with IBM on this issue.  Please note 
that
this demonstrates that I can be a sarcastic SOB <g>
