Step 1321-22
Look for and record any additional error information or software messages on the operator panel or the
console (serial TTY, Vterm, or HMC). Choose a running Linux partition (preferably the partition with the
problem).
Step 1321-23
Is Linux usable in any partition with Linux installed?
No Go to “Step 1321-30” on page 95.
Yes Go to “Step 1321-24”.
Attention: “Step 1321-24” through “Step 1321-36” on page 97 must be performed on a partition running
the Linux operating system.
Step 1321-24
1. If your system is functional, determine your level of Linux by logging in to the system as the root user
and entering the following command: ls -l /var/log/platform
If the /var/log/platform file exists, go to substep 3.
2. Examine the Linux system log by entering the following command:
cat /var/log/messages |grep RTAS |more
Linux run-time RTAS error messages are logged in the messages file under /var/log. The following is
an example of the Linux system RTAS error log messages.
