of the XSCF> prompt, and be unable to perform most operations.
RTIF1‐While XSCF is running, error message of 070418‐009 ʺOOM killʺ might be displayed to XSCF

RTIF1‐The showdomainstatus
070418‐010 shows domain status as Powered Off, but the
| showboards |
| domain is testing. |
RTIF1‐ | Some commands that update configuration |
070418‐011 data take a relatively long time to execute. | |
RTIF1‐ | The fault (memory.block.ue) is encountered |
070418‐012 | and reported periodically. |
RTIF1‐ | Using the rebootxscf command may result |
070418‐023 | in a process down error, and possibly an FMA |
| event with MSG ID SCF‐8005‐NE. |
RTIF1‐ | showaudit all shows a long list of defaults |
070418‐025 | in the policy section after the database is |
| cleared. |
Power off domains before using the flashupdate command to upgrade XCP firmware.
Log out of the bash$ prompt and wait for the XSCF to finish booting.
Check that XSCF is started. If not started, use the rebootxscf(8) command to restart XSCF, or stop all the domains and then execute the system power off/on (AC OFF/ON).
Use the showboards command to check the status of system power.
The showdomainstatus command takes a longer time to show the correct status.
Do not cancel set* commands. They appear to hang, but eventually complete in about 30 seconds.
An uncorrectable error exists in a DIMM and the DIMM should be replaced.
Ignore this event.
Update the database with the following:
