I suspect that it still has old LPAR configuration in it.

If the console panel says HMC=0 somewhere on it, then it is still looking for an HMC. Instead you want it to look something like this:

Code:

01     N    V=F
            T

Again, if you see HMC=0 then you need to do a factory reset (HMC=1 means an HMC is connected, HMC=0 means system knows about HMC's but none are connected).

I have some "ancient" youtube films - not the highest picture quality, and silent! - but these two should help you out.

Note: with ASMI you can do the actions on either the serial port OR via a browser (connected via the HMC labeled ports - these are to the SP - Service Processor).

Initial setup of ASMI on IBM POWER - YouTube Setup IP address via Serial Port
p5 factory reset - YouTube Factory Reset

Hope this helps!

dwww

DWWW(1) 							      Debian								   DWWW(1)

NAME

       dwww - access documentation via WWW

SYNOPSIS

       http://localhost/dwww/index.html
       dwww
       dwww program-name | package-name

DESCRIPTION

       A  typical Linux system has documentation in many formats (manual pages, info files, READMEs, and so on).  dwww makes it possible to access
       all of these via the same interface, a WWW browser.  This makes it easier to use the documentation.

       To use dwww, load the URL given in the SYNOPSIS.  If you have a web browser installed, you can also just run the dwww command  which  loads
       the  URL.   If  BROWSER	environment  variable  is  set, dwww uses sensible-browser(1) to load the URL.	Otherwise, dwww first tries to use
       browser specified by DWWW_BROWSER or DWWW_X11_BROWSER configuration variable (cf.  dwww(7)), than will use sensible-browser(1) command.

       If optional argument program-name or package-name is specified, dwww will search all documentation related to given program or package.

ENVIRONMENT

       BROWSER
	      Program used to load the above mentioned URL.

FILES

       /etc/dwww/dwww.conf
	      Configuration file for dwww.

SEE ALSO

       dwww-find(8), dwww(7), sensible-browser(1).
