Reset System
RS: Reset system through RST signal.
This command causes the system (except the MP) to be reset through the RST signal.
Execution of this command irrecoverably halts all system processing and I/O activity and restarts the
computer system. The effect of this command is very similar to cycling the system power. The OS is not
notified, no dump is taken on the way down, and so on.
Set Access
SA: Set access options—configures access for LAN and remote/modem ports
This command will disconnect modem, LAN, and web users if access is disabled.
Create Local Session
SE: Log into the system on local or remote port
Only valid from the local or remote/modem port, SE allows the user to leave the MP Command Interface
and enter a system session. Other mirrored MP users are placed in console mode. The session user returns
to the mirrored MP session on exit.
The MP regularly checks the activity of the session, closes the connection with the system, and, if the
timeout period has elapsed, returns the port to mirroring. The timeout period is set with the IT command.
On HP-UX, the SE command works on the local and remote ports.
Display Logs
SL: Display the contents of the system status logs
This command displays the content of the event logs that have been stored in non-volatile memory.
o
System Event Log (SEL) - High attention events and errors
o Forward progress - All events
o Current boot log - All events between "start of boot" and "boot complete"
o Previous boot log - The events from the previous boot
o The table below defines alert (or severity) levels.
Reading the system event log turns off the attention LED. Accessing this log is the only way to turn off the
attention LED when it is flashing and alerts have not been acknowledged at the alert display level.
Events are encoded data that provide system information to the user. Some well-known names for similar
data would be Chassis Codes or Post Codes. Intelligent hardware modules, the OS, and system firmware
produce events. Use VFP to view the live events. Use SL to view log events.
