Operating Systems HP-UX HP-UX Console trouble, please help !!!! Post 302418031 by ScriptBoy on Sunday 2nd of May 2010 03:08:19 PM

@ultimatix - basically this HP-UX box was working fine and then suddenly we couldn't connect to it, even though it is up and running. Since then I'm trying to login via console (Serial & USB), but i get stuck on this screen with 8 tabs.

@fpmurphy - I tried all the different settings but no luck. I even connect monitor to the box directly and used USB Keyboard but i get stuck on the same screen.

@methyl - the machine normally works in muti-user and it was running fine until recently when nobody could connect to the box. I checked the serial cable and it is connected in right direction.

If I get pass this screen and be able to type once i login, then i can run some diagnostics to see what really happened but until then i can't do anything.

Once again I appreciate all your responses, many thanks.
