Full Discussion: System can't boot up after power outage
Operating Systems AIX System can't boot up after power outage Post 302937846 by MichaelFelt on Tuesday 10th of March 2015 02:54:17 AM

A bit of Google gives this link: IBM Flex System

In short, there is a power failure - which you stated. However, they may still be a missing powerlink inside and/or your powersupply is not working properly.

Go to the link and see if there are other hints re: this series of codes.

As it has a service processor I would look at that interface. The difficulty will be the 40-bit https encryption for the web-interface.

A very different model POWER5 - but I wrote up some of my first demos that may help you with the ASMI (Advanced Systems Management Interface) if you have never used it before.

Assuming you have never used (connected an IP cable) to the service processor ports they have IP address 192.168.2.147 and 192.168.3.147 (Power6 changed to 169.254.2.147 and 169.254.3.147). If you have connected them, and you have a DHCP server, they will have taken an address from the DHCP server.

Because it is POWER5 - to access the web interface you will need an old browser. I am still using FF17 because of this (People seem to not understand that while having so-called low-encryption is a potential risk to security in a 'global/hostile' - not having it at all is a definite security breach (of availability) in a closed environment.)

Anyway, I hope with the IP addresses - and this link ROOTVG - AIX, LinuxOnPower & POWER Systems Portal - POWER: Movies to my initial movies (I do not speak, so nothing wrong with your speaker) you will be able to make some forward motion.

From memory - the default user/password for ASMI is admin/admin.

Hope this helps!

DETECTUPS(8)						      System Manager's Manual						      DETECTUPS(8)

NAME

       detectups - UPS detection/powerd configuration generator

SYNOPSIS

       /sbin/detectups [tty]

DESCRIPTION

       detectups monitors the serial port connected to an UPS device and will attempt to determine the method of UPS notification of power outage.
       It will ask you to remove the power cord from the wall to the UPS, or push the UPS's test button. It will then determine what all has  hap-
       pened and ask to generate a config file based on your UPS and cable configuration.  detectups needs to watch a tty with modem control prop-
       erties.	Please refer to the powerd documentation for further information.

ARGUMENTS

       Serial-Device Some serial port that is not being used by some other device, and does not share an interrupt with  any  other  serial  port.
       /etc/powerd.conf

FILES

       /etc/powerd.conf    powerd configuration file that		      detectups generates
       /etc/inittab	   init is what actually issues the			shutdown

SEE ALSO

       powerd(8), shutdown(8), wall(1), inittab(5).
