FWCONS

The console display might be failing.

  1. If your server has an attached console, but the console display is not working, see the documentation for the display or try substituting a known good display for the one that is failing.
  2. If you can see selection screens on the terminals, press the appropriate key on the input device within 60 seconds. If the console does not respond to the keystroke:
    1. If you are selecting the console with a keyboard attached to the system, replace the keyboard. See the service documentation for the system unit for keyboard part numbers. If the keyboard does not fix the problem, use SVCPROC to replace the service processor.
    2. If you are selecting the console with an ASCII terminal, suspect the terminal. Use the problem determination procedures for the terminal.
      Note: The ASCII terminal settings should be:
      • 19,200 baud
      • No parity
      • 8 data bits
      • 1 stop bit

      This ends the procedure.
