Dependencies

an LMM+ module at revision 1.21 or greater (for revision 1 modules) or

LANplex system software 8.0.2 on an earlier revision of the LMM+, the

 

system will fail to reboot automatically when you turn it on.

 

To reboot the system, connect a terminal to the serial port on the LMM+

 

installed in the system. A question asking if you want to “ignore the

 

checksum error” is displayed. Type y for (yes). The system reboots.

 

To verify that you have an LMM+ installed, check that the module’s ejector

 

tab is labeled “LMM+”. To determine the revision of your LMM+, from the

 

top level of the Administration Console, enter system display.
