Running the Online Diagnostics in Service Mode with No HMC Attached
Online diagnostics can be loaded by booting from a hard file in the custom boot list by pressing the
numeric 6 key on the keyboard.
To boot from the devices listed in the service mode boot list, perform the following procedure:
1. Verify with the system administrator and users that all programs may be stopped, then do so.
2. Turn off the system.
Note: If AIX is running, type the shutdown command.
3. Wait until the Power-on LED stops flashing and remains off, then press the power button to turn the
system on.
4. When the keyboard indicator appears during startup, press the numeric 6 key on the keyboard.
5. Enter any requested passwords.
After any requested passwords have been entered, the system attempts to boot from the first device of
each type found on the list. If no bootable image is found on the first device of each type on the list, the
system does not search through the other devices of that type for a bootable image; instead, it polls the
first device of the next type.
If all types of devices in the boot list have been polled without finding a bootable image, the system
restarts. This action gives the user the opportunity to start the System Management Services (by pressing
the number 1 key on a directly attached keyboard or the number 1 on an ASCII terminal) before the
system attempts to boot again.
