Chapter 4 Troubleshooting Procedures
UNIX Host on the LAN
When troubleshooting a UNIX host on the LAN, make sure that:
❑The host is booted and functioning properly.
❑The host can communicate with other network nodes using standard UNIX networking features and utilities.
❑All Remote Annex 6300 software is installed properly on the host (see theRemote Annex Software Installation Notes ).
❑The erpcd daemon or tftp server, which loads the operational image to the Remote Annex 6300, is running.
In Test mode, both the Remote Annex 6300 and erpcd on the load server host display boot progress reports. The Remote Annex 6300 displays its reports on the console; erpcd displays its reports on the UNIX terminal that invokes Test mode.
1To place erpcd on the load server host into Test mode, kill the erpcd program (requires superuser privileges) and restart it using the
# /etc/erpcd –D5
2 To place the Remote Annex into Test mode, hold down the |
|
| Test |

|
|
|
|
| ||||
button until the Power LED blinks rapidly, then release the |
|
|
|
|
| |||
|
| Test |
|
|
| |||
|
|
|
|
| ||||
button and press it again within 3 seconds. (This resets the Remote | ||||||||
Annex, so warn users before you do it.) Then enter: |
|
|
|
|
|
| ||
# boot |
|
|
|
|
|
|
When the Remote Annex 6300 boots in Test mode, the console displays the load server host’s Internet address, and indicates whether it receives a response to its Open File Request and to any of its Read File Requests. The host’s progress report indicates receipt of any File Server Requests and its responses to such requests.
