This appendix provides a series of questions and answers dealing with common IBM 2212 installation,
operation, and maintenance tasks, with suggestions as to where to find further help in performing them.
Accessing the Bootstrap Menus
Question What are the bootstrap menus? How do I access them?
Answer
The bootstrap is microcode running on the IBM 2212 that tests the basic functions of the
system card and the hard drive/compact flash, and then loads the operational code. The
bootstrap menus display errors detected by the bootstrap and provide system card and hard
drive/compact flash problem determination tools, which are used primarily by service personnel.
Accessing the bootstrap menus requires that a console be attached to the IBM 2212 service
port, and the boot process be stopped at a specific point.
To access the bootstrap menus:
1. Either unplug and plug the power cord, or type reload at the OPCON (
*
) prompt on the
console.
2. The IBM 2212 will begin its boot process. When the message
<<
Press CTRL-C to access
menus>>
is displayed, press Ctrl-C on the terminal keyboard to stop the boot process. The
bootstrap main menu will appear.
Note: You cannot use SLIP to access the bootstrap menus.
Accessing the OPCON Command Line Interface
Question How do I access OPCON (*)?
Answer
After you have connected your console to the IBM 2212 and have powered on the console and
the IBM 2212, you will see a sequence of informational status messages. When you see the
prompt
Please press the space bar to obtain the console
, press the space bar to attach the
IBM 2212 to your session. The system acknowledges this action with the message
Console
granted to this interface
, and by displaying the OPCON command prompt on the console
after the code loading is complete.
Note: If you are at an IBM 2212 that has never been configured, the system presents the
command prompt
Config (only)>
. Otherwise, you will see the OPCON (
*
) prompt.
Accessing OPCON from the Bootstrap Menus
Question How do I access the OPCON command line interface from within the bootstrap?
Answer
From the Boot Sequence Selection Menu, select Normal Boot, then select Issue Reset. The
OPCON prompt
*
is displayed after the system boots.
The command line interface is described in the
Access Integration Services Software User’s
Guide.
