I. Background these two days are busy a project, the technical application of the project is like this: The entire project uses Tuxedo-based three-layer structure, the middleware server uses IBM P630, and the AIX5.2 (64bit) operation is installed on the P630. System, due to other reasons, the graphics card of the machine is still in place, so the serial port is connected and then installs the operating system. The installation is also relatively smooth, because the AIX 5.2 (using Oslevel can view the current operating system version number, I am 5.2.0.0) uses 64bit kernel (enter bootinfo -k under root users), but Later, because the cause of misoperation, AIX5.2 was killed, and he didn't get it for the old half-day, and some error code was displayed in the machine's LCD. Without the technical support of IBM engineer, there were many kinds, but each time Most of the error code that started is different, so always feel that the problem should be not hardware. Time is urgent, heaven, it's really going, because the graphics card is still not arriving, we decided to reinstall the AIX5.2 operating system after consulting with the IBM engineer. Second, access the P630 but does not have the system recovery? Oh, I don't know that my friends will feel very strange. In fact, IBM's machine supports the host from serial port to the host (can be queried from IBM website) to perform non-operation system-level operations, I access (four steps) : 1. Prepare the cable, generally buy the head of the serial port in the computer city - need two, 9 holes above the head, 4 5, both ends are convex, then use the line to put two into one | -------- | 9 holes need to be connected, the specific connection method I am not very clear, because it is done, if you don't know how to do it, you can ask IBM engineers) . 2. On the line connection, there are three serial ports behind the butt of the IBM server (as examples of IBM P630, the three serial ports are 1, 2, 3 respectively), and the line is connected to the No. 1 gate of P630 ( Note that must be connected to the first serial port, other serial ports cannot be used), and the other is connected to the computer you want to operate (for the following styles convenient, referred to as the PC serial port, simply there is also a serial port). 3. Preparing before logging in, first restart the P630 to the LCD display OK, insert the tape with AIX5.2 backup into the machine's tape, the system will automatically mout. 4, use the software to log in, under Windows 98 / 2K / XP, "Attachment" has a tool tool ("Communication" under "Annex", then enter a name, then select COM1 (this is the PC just wired The serial port may be COM2. In general, COM1 is generally, enter the interface to the COM1 setting, select the number of bits per second = 9600, data bit = 8, parity = no, stop bit = 1, data stream control = no, Then determined.
After entering, you need to wait for about 2 minutes to 5 minutes. Note that there must be patience during the following operations. Under normal circumstances, it is necessary to wait for 2 minutes to 5 minutes, and when there is a response with the super terminal, appear on the interface. Screen (due to the problem of web control characters, I added some characters in the middle of the space, the font I changed to white): Rio Configuration ------------- Remote I / O Attachment Summary - ------------ | - --- zengzczengzczengzczengzczengzcz || | | | | zengzczengzczengzczengzczengzcz || | 0 ----------- 0 1- - zengzczengzczengzczengzczen || | | | | | zengzczengzczengzczengzczeng || | | --- | zengzczengzczengzczengzczeng || | | 0 | zengzczengzczengzczengzczeng || | | | zengzczengzczengzczengzczeng || | | | zengzczengzczengzczengzczeng || | 1 ---- ----------------- zengzczengzczengzczengzczeng || | | zengzczengzczengzczengzczengzengzczengzczzege || | | zengzczengzczengzczengzczengzengzczengzczzege || | | zengzczengzczengzczengzczengzengzczengzczzege || | | zengz czengzczengzczengzczengzengzczengzczzege || | | zengzczengzczengzczengzczengzengzczengzczzege || | 2zengzczengzczengzczengzczengzengzczengzczzege || | | zengzczengzczengzczengzczengzengzczengzczzege || | | zengzczengzczengzczengzczengzengzczengzczzege || | | zengzczengzczengzczengzczengzengzczengzczzege || | | zengzczengzczengzczengzczengzengzczengzczzege || | | zengzczengzczengzczengzczengzengzczengzczzege || | 3zengzczengzczengzczengzczengzengzczengzczzege || | | zengzczengzczengzczengzczengzengzczengzczzege || ---

Everyone should pay attention to it): After the above interface, just stare at the screen, wait for the prompt: Press 0 to SELECT This console as the active console Press '0' (From this time, the system will prompt you step by step, and all the choice is used, that is, you don't need to enter something, just choose 1, 2, 3 .. . You'd better press on the main keyboard, don't press the keypad, remove some unnecessary interference), then keep watching the screen until: 1 = SMS Menu 5 = default boot list 6 = stored boot List 8 = Open firmware PromptMemory Keyboard Network SCSI Speaker, the P630's speaker will have two sounds, this time you choose 1, pay attention to not too slow, otherwise the menu is very fast. At this time, I entered SMS, the screen appeared: starting software
Please wait ... 6, the next job, you can follow the book "AIX5L Installation Guide and Reference Version 5.2" wear, just all E text, everyone can slowly, then it is very Details. At this time, you have entered the IBM P630 SMS, followed by the above prompt step by step, there is nothing to pay attention to, so I am a short, pay attention to if you don't understand what you choose, you can choose all ... Show all things. Most of the choices you only need to follow the default selection (such as [1], it is the default selection 1. If you choose the default value, you can use it directly to enter! Third, restore AIX When you select until the last step, you need to select SCSI TYPE, and then the system automatically performs the recovery of the system. According to the universal configuration and performance of the machine, it will last for about 30 to 45 minutes. The system is restarted, and it is very good. Fourth, pay attention to front of the machine, there is an LCD, when the LCD has a prompt information, indicating that the hardware is tested or is started, and when no information is displayed, the operating system is running.
