Turn off auto config and create a device description for the
printer.
Make sure the printer has a static IP address instead of
using DHCP to
get there. Run your VPN site to site instead of through
your PC.

hi there,

i come across this somewhat odd case with a 820

machine.

It was successfully booted into D>M by my colleague

and was scratched

up to only OS level. i then continued with

installation of Licensed

Programs.


1. In B>N mode, no problem with twinax connection

& console display :-

The server was initially in B>N mode,but it was

found to have the

issue of user ID locked during sign-on, after the

exisitng twinax

controller at the back of system unit connected to the

8-port twinax

(MUX?) box.

2. In B>M or D>M, everytime IPL into either of

these

2 manual modes, always the console seemed unable to

obtain signal from

the existing twinax controller,with attention light at

display panel.

Already set console to Address 0, Port 0.

3. After replacing a twinax controller at the back of

system unit,

console display back to normal when IPL into manual

modes.

my concerns are :-

- Why a 'intermittent-faulty' (is this the

right

word to say?) twinax controller would caused attention

light

& caused no signal to be transmitted to console ?

- How are the detailed IPL process at Manual mode

(Attended

IPL) ?


hope u could shed some lights .. thx a lot..
