Installing the LCS60

Power-Down Procedures

Only a user logged on as root may shut the system down at the system console. When logged on as a user, log off and log back on as root (refer to Chapter 8). (As shipped, the root password is the Return key.) At the root prompt (#), enter:

/etc/shutdown -g0 -y -i0

The on/off switch can be used to halt the system only when you receive the mes- sage stating the system is secured for powering down.

Caution: Use the correct procedure to power down the system. Do not use the Reset button, the on/off system power switch, or pull the electrical plug to stop the system or UNIX System file corruption may result.

Reboot

To reboot the system (rather than shut it down), use the command:

/etc/shutdown -g0 -y -i6

Hardware

This will shutdown the system and then reboot it. The reboot sequence ends with the Console Login: prompt.

Verify LCS60 Console Connection

To verify the console connection, perform the following:

1. Power-up the LCS60 and verify that communication with the console has been established. The console should display diagnostic text followed by the Console Login: prompt.

2. If the above information is not displayed on the console after powering-up the LCS60, check the following for your connection:

Direct console optioning and cabling

Through the Data Switch console and LCS60 connections to the data switch network and the related data switch configuration
