This can happen for either of two reasons:

 

volatile storage.

Your installed Operating System does not support

 

 

 

 

storing the values.

 

 

 

Some event occurred that caused the system to

 

 

lose nonvolatile storage information (drainage or

 

 

replacement of the battery).

 

 

 

If you are running AIX, this information can be

 

 

reconstructed by running thebootlist

command

 

 

specifying the device that the Operating System is

 

 

installed on. Please refer to your AIX documentation

 

 

for the exact syntax and usage of the

bootlist

 

 

command.

 

 

 

To boot the Operating System so that these values

 

 

can be reconstructed, power down the system and

 

 

power it back up again. This should cause the system

 

 

to look for the Operating System in the devices

 

 

contained in the custom boot list or in the default boot

 

 

list, depending on the condition of the system. If this is

 

 

not successful, use the System Management Services

 

 

Menus to modify the Boot Sequence (also known as

 

 

boot list) to include devices that are known to contain a

 

 

copy of the Operating System. For example, select a

 

 

hard disk known to have a copy of the Operating

 

 

System as the first and only device in the boot

 

 

sequence (boot list) and attempt to boot again.

SCSI Device Errors

SCSI device error notes:

 

 

 

1. Before replacing any system components:

 

 

a. Ensure that the controller and each device on

 

 

the SCSI bus is assigned a unique SCSI ID.

 

 

b. Ensure SCSI bus is properly terminated.

 

 

c. Ensure SCSI signal and power cables are

 

 

securely connected and not damaged.

 

 

2. The location code information is required to identify

 

 

the ID of SCSI device failures, as well as to

 

 

indicate the location of the controller to which the

 

 

device is attached.
