Kinda off topic.it'll be my TSM server!



Just received a new Power6 p520, connected to the serial0 console port with
my Hyperterm and turned the box on. I see all the startup messages and when
AIX is finally up.nothing. It does not give me a logon prompt. My AIX guru
is away on medical. So I reloaded AIX 6.1. Went all the way through the
install and initial configuration wizard assigning an IP address to the
Ethernet port. Only probably is.they gave me the wrong subnet mask. So now I
can't get to it over IP and the serial connection won't give me a logon
prompt.



Any ideas how I can get a logon prompt over the serial so I can fix this
mess?? I've used the serial port on other pServers and it was usually a
matter of finding the right speed for the connection. But I can watch the
whole boot sequence and then nothing!!



I was hoping to be backing up to this TSm server by Tuesday. What's a
weekend anyway, but 2 more working days until Monday?



Any help will be appreciated. I don't' want to go through the AIX install
again just to be able to set an IP address during the initial install
wizard.
