[Solved] Keyboard Mouse Display not working with Pseries

Hello,

Just got a refurbished Pseries when I boot the machine , everything is okay, that is no attention light and panel shows
01 B N

but there is nothing on the display ( monitor / console ) which is plugged into the video card port of pseries. The display is empty....

The keyboard doesn't work ie., if it press NUM Lock or CAPS Lock, no lights come up, and the optical mouse also doesn't work ( no light in the mouse )

How can I troubleshoot this issue ?

Apparently looks like HMC issue.

Probably HMC was connected on this system and now have to make it forget to use the console
Quote:
This connection is only active if the box is not currently connected to HMC or was connected to it in the last 14 days.
If you see HMC=1 or HMC=0 on the LED screen you will not be able to get serial connection. You can reset the service processor and make it forget its HMC connection.
See IBM for more information.
Link doesn't work. Anyone have access to how to get HMC removed , please share here.

NAME
WMGRABIMGAE - Dockable WWW Image monitor. SYNOPSIS
wmGrabImage [-h] [-display <Display>] -url <Image URL> [-http <URL>] [-c] [-delay <Time>] DESCRIPTION
wmGrabImage is a WindowMaker DockApp that maintains a small thumbnail copy of your favorite image from the WWW. The image to monitor is specified via the "-url <Image URL>" command-line option and it gets updated approximately every 5 minutes. The update interval can be overridden via the "-delay <Time>" command-line option (Time is in seconds). Each of the three mouse buttons can be double clicked with the following effects; Left Mouse: Brings up the full-sized image in xv. Middle Mouse: Sends a URL (specified via the -http <URL> command-line option) to an already running netscape process or in a new netscape process if there arent any running. Right Mouse: Updates the image immediately. OPTIONS
-h Display list of command-line options. -display [display] Use an alternate X Display. -url <Image URL> The URL of the WWW image to monitor. -http <URL> The URL to send to netscape via a Middle double click. -c Center the image vertically within the icon. -delay <Time> The time between updates. The default is about 5 minutes. FILES
The original sized image and the thumbnail XPM image are both stored in ~/.wmGrabImage/ which gets created if it doesnt already exist. SEE ALSO
wget and the ImageMagick convert utility. BUGS
Who knows? -- its still Beta though. (Let me know if you find any). Oldish versions of the ImageMagick convert utility have a memory leak -- if you have that problem, upgrade to the latest version. AUTHOR
