3. Watch the boot display to confirm that the newly installed or replaced
hardware are recognized.
Note – In the event of “loss of carrier” or “not responding” messages, refer to
Section 2.5.2.1, “Preparing a New SBus Card“.
4. After the system finishes booting, log in and resume normal operation.
2.12 Selecting a System Master
OBP must select a new system master from among the system boards in the
card cage in any of these situations:
•
If the system master is replaced with a new system board
•
If the NVRAM on the system master is replaced
•
If two or more system master boards are in the card cage
A specific configuration and card cage slot position is required for the system
master. Refer to Section D.1, “System Master Board.”
2.12.1 When a Terminal Is Present
If the terminal is connected to the correct system board (watch for one board
with flashing LEDs during boot-up), the OBP prompt will appear
approximately 20 seconds after the system begins to power up. The actual time
depends on the amount of memory to be tested.
Caution – If the terminal is connected to the wrong board, the message will not
appear. At this point the system may seem to be locked up, but OBP is only
pausing, waiting for you to respond at a different board.
