Re: Status unmatch HMC and Power 8 server.

Hi Jim.
Hi Rob.

Thank you for your advice.

The result of ping command between HMC and FSP is OK.

I push PF5 to update the HMC screen when the S814 is started/shutdown for
the time being.

There are no other problems within our using.

HMC 8.7 and the latest code of 8.8.6 have so many bugs I can't begin to
keep

I would appreciate to tell me some other specific issues for using HMC 8.7
or later (or enhanced+ interface).

With Best Regards.

Tsutomu. Japan.

The Enhanced interface is where 90% of the problems are. The rest is just
screen sizing, scroll function ion and ungodly slow AJAX times.

8.8.7 is off my list until they get the DLPAR and IBM i hosting working
better/included respectively.

I run it on all my machines with no issues. I do NOT use then enhanced+
interface however so cannot tell you how solid that part is.

them cataloged. I just installed a new 41A with an 8.7 HMC and it
did
not
show those problems but I'm no surprised.

I just closed a PMR where the RMC connection was lost to two VIOS
servers.
Took them five days to get to a resolution. Meanwhile I had to
rebuild
100% of the SEAs and all communications to the partitions. That was at
8.8.6.

But does the HMC and FSP every communicate? Like, can you start 5250
sessions? Can you look at the hardware? etc?
Basically if there is NO communication anymore that's one issue. But
if
there is just no communication about the SRC changing during startup
that's
a whole other issue.

Hi Rob.

- never catch up to matching during startup and shutdown?
->YES.
- eventually match but there seems to be a lag time before they do?
->NO.

-Before update -
S814---SV860_109 (FW860.31)
HMC---MH01723 (V8R8.7.0 M0 Fix)

-> This is OK.

IBM CE told us that the FSP and HMC does not communicate from packet
capture.

The link you show me is very useful.

Hi.

We have been using the Power 8 machine(S814). (which are installed i

There are problem as follows.

1)when start up (by HMC)

S814 server have already started with status STAND BY, but
C7004091
is
displayed on HMC yet.

2)when shutdown (by HMC)

S814 server had been shutdown but C19020 (or C19020FF) is still
displayed on HMC.

We push PF5 to refresh the screen of HMC every time.

Does anyone have those problems.
