HP Integrity rx2800 i2 console access with iLo

$
0
0

Boy could I use some help.  We have an HP Integrity rx2800 i2 machine (running HP-UX).  We also have a T620 iLo.  It is my understanding that I can get console access to the Integrity through the iLo.  I have not been able to do this.  I'm thinking it has something to do with the configuration of the iLo. 

 

The iLo is connected to a monitor, keyboard, and mouse through a KVA.  I'm pretty sure I'm on the iLo.  I get a Thin Client screen which shows a few icons on it.  I double click the one that is labelled rx2800i2 and a terminal type screen shows up.  It seems to be label as TeemTalkCE.  I would expect this to be the console to the Integrity, however when I press the Enter key nothing happens.  I'm thinking I don't have the correct configuration for the serial connection from the iLo to the Integrity.  (There is a 9 pin cable running from the |o|o| connector on the back of the iLo to the |o|o| connector on the back of the Integrity.)  The bottom of the TeemTalk screen shows Online and VT100.  If I go to Settings -> Serial... in the drop down, I see it set up as 9600 baud, 8 Data Bits, No Parity, 1 Stop Bit, No Flow Control, and a Terminal Rate of 9600.  I'm guessing these settings are not correct, but I don't really know.

 

Can anyone help me get access to my console?  I would really appreciate it.

Dear All,

We have two new Rx2800 i4 Server with 2x4C 1.8 Ghz/64GB RAM server provisoned with HP-UX 11iv3 with MArch'15 patch bundles. Both need to be part of a Oracle Apps cluster and connected to EVA 4400. the Cluster used is VERITAS Cluster Server. So we put SFHA on both and put exact same patches. All Kernel prameters are also exactly same, we cross checked same. So while one server seems normal, another seems very sluggish. Starting ORacle DB service took almost 4-5 min and same with stop. We have try to check all hardware and logs but found nothing. Can someone help as to where to look for solution.

If you need any further info please feel free to ask.

Thanks in advance!!!

where can I find wget on the HP site?

page-out while having lots of free memory, HP-UX 11.31

Hi experts,

we noticed this from OEM(Oracle Enterprise Manager) first. I also extracted MeasureWare data which has free memory and page-out data for one week.  You can see from 13:10 to 14:10 on Nov.15th, some consistent page-out happened while there were more than 25GB free memory (about 55% memory utilization).  Could you help explain why this happened and should this be a concern to us?

Thanks.

Maybe someday i lost ip connection.

I have bought this cable

usb-2-0-to-9-25-pin-serial-rs232-cable-db9.jpg

 

On laptop (linux) i see

Superdome 2 expansion options

We currently have a Superdome 2 server with 3 i2 blades configured in 1 partition. We need more processor power, so we are wondering about our options. Can we still purchase i2 blades or only i4? Can an i4 blade be configured into the same partition as existing i2 blades? Can i2 blades by upgraded with the new i4 processors? Can i2 blades be traded-in for i4 blades?

Thanks,

HP integrity rx1620: updating the firmware

$
0
0

I will go to upgrade my HP server firmware, so I read the doc "rx16x0_9_5_install_manual.txt" to get info about that. Although my server is not a corporative server, I use it to my technical and profissional researchs, and the hypothesis to have troubles scare me.

 

My simple question is: what is the firmware version to consider at the momento of the upgrade?

 

We can read on the help doc inside the upgrade package:

 

"This system firmware update will be aborted if the current iLO MP firmware

revision present on the system is less than E.02.29. In order to upgrade

system firmware using this package, first upgrade the iLO MP firmware to

E.02.29. Please follow the upgrade requirements below:

1 - Upgrades to iLO MP firmware revision E.02.29 will require updating to

iLO MP firmware revision E.02.26 first.

2 - iLO MP firmware must be at or upgraded to revision E.02.29 prior to

upgrading to iLO MP revision E.03.30."

 

 

My MP "sysrev" output:

 

SYSREV

Current firmware revisions

 MP FW     : E.03.15
 BMC FW    : 03.48
 EFI FW    : 02.14
 System FW : 02.18

 

I'm ready to install the upgrade? The iLO MP firmware is the first information on the sysrev column?

 

thanks a lot

Hi,

I have a rx7640 server with two cells and two nPars. One of the cell fails to power on with below error. in fact it powers on for few minutes and stops with this error message.

10459 PDHC 0,1   *3 648013c901e00027 00ffff01ff03ff43 CELL_VRM_RAIL_FLT

I can see below error in PS command

HW status for Cell 1 : FAILURE DETECTED

Power status : OFF, 1.2V FSB RAIL FAULT
Faults above are latched. They are cleared just before the cell is powered on.

Is it VRM fault or system board?

Hi,

We are planning to migrate standalone rx series server to migrate on vPar. The current Rx sereis server running Oracle Application.

Both source and target systems are HP-Ux 11i v3.

I just want to understand whether I can take advantage of Ignite facility or DRD is better / more feasible option to achieve this activity with much lower impact.

There is also underlying Storage Migrations planned within this same activity. My goal is to achieve this activity on OS level itself.

Thanks in advance for your support and valuable contributions.

Cheers.

Best raid option

$

0

My company has just purchased an HP Integrity rx2800 server which has (among other things) an HP Smart Array P410i controller with 8 300GB (HP 300GB 10K SAS SFF 6GB DP). The server will run OpenVMS and a somewhat light commercial application

Two of the disks have already been factory configured as RAID 1+0 with OpenVMS factory installed

I want to configure the remaining 6 disks.

The original thought was to create one raid array of 5 disks leaving 1 as spare.

Now considering a raid 5+0 using all 6 disks under 2 parity groups (in fact when I get into the configure menu, this is the default option it presents).

What is the most recommended option?

Neither performance nor available space is a big consideration as the application is light weight and does run adequately on a much smaller server

What I am trying get here is other users' confidence levels on the two options above and also factors like how crucial is to keep a spare disk, how easily can one be sourced if no spare disk etc.

Thank you !

it boots to a point (finds the OS and loads kernel etc.) but the system then always resets with:

************* SYSTEM ALERT **************

Anything else skip redisplay the log entry

then it reboots. This happens always, no matter wether you boot from disk or from installation DVD.

Is there any way to find out what it means and to fix the issue?
