vRead Progress Indicators from Last System Boot

Displays a number of the boot progress indicators, which may include service processor checkpoints, IPL checkpoints, or AIX configuration codes, from the previous system boot. This information can be useful in diagnosing system faults.

Note: If you are running one or more logical partitions, enter the partition ID (0-15) to display progress indicators for that partition since the last system boot. If your system is running in Full System Partition mode, this option automatically displays details from partition 0.

The progress indicator codes are listed from top (latest) to bottom (oldest).

This information is not stored in nonvolatile storage. If the system is powered off using the power-on button on the operator panel, this information is retained. If the ac power is disconnected from the system, this information will be lost. For an example, refer to ªLCD Progress Indicator Logº on page 70.

vRead Service Processor Error Logs

Displays the service processor error logs. For an example, refer to ªService Processor Error Logsº on page 69.

vRead System POST Errors

Displays additional error log information (this option is only for service personnel).

vExit from Menus

Selecting this option will exit the service processor menus. You can re-enter the menus by pressing any key on the console.
