Re: Long IPL at SRC C600 3915

I had them hit the power button and it seemed to be starting but it has
been sitting at SRC C600 3915 for over an hour. The description is
"Licensed internal code (LIC) has initiated the load source IOP
self-load." so I am thinking this should be a quick step instead. The
customer is not reporting an alert light yet. I hope to get onsite in an
hour.

I've seen a machine stuck on this message before. It was a 250 oder
270. It was a broken disk - resolution was to pull the load source and
have the system IPL from the mirror. Worked fine after replacing the
disk.

Might be something else in your case, though.

Does this still sound like an Oh Frack or the rare Like A PC and reboot
it again?

I'd try to IPL again first. The disk controllers on the Power 520
models are rather flaky, and i've seen at least two machines that
sometimes just wouldn't IPL. A powercycle would help them get back on
track.
