Mon itor Con n ector  
The B2000 workstation has an integrated HP VISUALIZE-fxe graphics chip on the system  
board. Thus, the monitor connector on the rear panel of the workstation connects the  
monitor to this graphics chip on the system board.  
Ser ia l Con n ector s  
There are a variety of pointing devices (such as a mouse or trackball) or peripheral devices  
(including printers, plotters, modems, and scanners) that can be attached to the two  
RS-232 Serial Input/Output (SIO) ports on the rear panel of this workstation. Refer to the  
label on the rear of the workstation to locate serial port 1 and serial port 2. Consult the  
documentation that accompanies each pointing device or peripheral device for specific  
information concerning its use.  
The SIO ports are programmable, allowing functions such as bit rate, character length,  
parity, and stop bits to be set. You can set these by using the HP-UX System  
Administration Manager (SAM) utility, or by selecting a system special device file with the  
functions already programmed. The SIO ports are used as interfaces for serial  
asynchronous devices to the CPU.  
Table 1-4 shows the SIO connector pin listings. The serial connectors are 9-pin D-sub  
connectors. Signal names are those specified in the EIA RS-232 standard.

1600×1200 color, 75Hz, VESA  
1280×1024 color, 75 Hz, VESA  
The workstation must have either an HP-supported monitor running at 75 Hz with a  
1280×1024 resolution, or a full multi-mode color monitor. Monitors with EVC, D-Sub, or 5  
BNC connectors (RGB, vertical sync, horizontal sync) will function.  
NOTE  
The HP VISUALIZE-fxe graphics card will not function with older HP monitor  
types that use a sync on green signal. This includes monitors such as the  
HP 1097A/B/C/D, A2088A, and A2828A/B that only have 3 BNC connectors.  
Note that you can connect the B2000 workstation to earlier HP monitors with 15-pin  
miniature D-Sub cables using the A4168A adapter shipped with the workstations  
accessory kit.  
Before using a monitor, you should become familiar with its controls, connectors, and  
indicators. For information about using a monitor, see the documentation that came with

Mem or y Fa ilu r es  
The HP VISUALIZE B2000 system (with HP-UX 10.20 and later) uses Memory Page  
Deallocation, a feature that allows the system to provide information to the operating  
system about memory failures.  
You can use the memrptcommand with the detailswitch to obtain information about the  
Memory Page Deallocation Table (PDT) as well as single bit errors logged by the system,  
by typing the following:  
# /usr/sbin/sysdiag Enter  
DUI>logtool Enter  
LOGTOOL>memrpt detail Enter  
The PDT can also be checked using the pdt command in the Service menu of the Boot  
Console Handler (refer to Chapter 6). If you replace a defective DIMM, use the Service  
Menus pdt clearcommand to clear out the PDT.

Dealing with a Boot Failure  
Selftest Failures  
Memory Failures  
Running System Verification Tests  
Running ODE-Based Diagnostics  
Using the PIM Dump Tool to Decode HPMCs  
To troubleshoot an HP VISUALIZE B2000 workstation, you must be familiar with the  
HP-UX operating system. You should also be familiar with the boot ROM diagnostics and  
the Mesa (Support Tools Manager) online tests, which we describe in this chapter.  
As a super-user who is troubleshooting an HP-UX system, you should be able to shutdown  
and reboot a system, start and stop processes, and examine error logs. You should also be  
able to use systems utilities such as ioscan to check device files and configurations,  
swlist to show loaded patches and software bundles, and SAM to configure and show  
enabled services and configurations. You should also be familiar with STM, the online  
diagnostics tool. You can view man pages on any of these online utilities or commands.  
Note any error or status messages, then run the power-up boot ROM diagnostics, known as  
Self Test. If the Self Test diagnostics fail, replace the FRU that is indicated. If the tests  
pass, but you still suspect a problem, run the ISL diagnostics and Mesa (Support Tools  
Manager) online tests.  
For a complete description of using ISL diagnostics and Mesa (Support Tools Manager),

Dealing with a Boot Failure  
Dea lin g w ith a Boot Fa ilu r e  
To start this workstation from an operating system stored on a device different from the  
usual boot device, to boot from a different disk, or to boot from another type of device (such  
as an alternate hard disk or CD), see the following situations and examples that use the  
Boot Console Handler. To access the Boot Console Handler, see Chapter 6.  
To boot from a known device containing a bootable operating system, type the following  
at the prompt and press Enter:  
Main Menu: Enter a command or a menu > boot device  
where deviceis the hardware path to the device, specified in Mnemonic Style Notation  
For example, to boot an operating system stored on a DDS-format tape in a drive  
located at scsi.1.0,go to the Main Menu of the Boot Console Interface and then type  
the following command at the prompt and press Enter:  
Main Menu: Enter a command > boot scsi.1.0  
The operating system on the specified device is used to start the workstation.  
To interact with the Initial System Loader (ISL) before booting the workstation, type  
the following at the prompt and press Enter:  
Main Menu: Enter a command or a menu > boot device  
You are prompted: Interact with ISL (Y or N) > y  
Answering yes (y) causes the ISL to be loaded from the specified device. After a short  
time, the following prompt appears on the screen:  
ISL>  
ISL is the program that actually controls the loading of the operating system. By  
interacting with ISL, you can choose to load an alternate version of the HP-UX  
operating system.  
For example, if the usual kernel (/stand/vmunix for HP-UX 10.20) on the root disk  
(scsi.6.0) has become corrupted, boot the workstation from the backup kernel  
(/stand/vmunix.prev for HP-UX 10.20) by typing the following at the ISL> prompt  
and press Enter:  
ISL>hpux /stand/vmunix.prev  
To find the location of the bootable operating systems on the various media in the file  
system, use the searchiplcommand.

The search may turn up more devices than there are lines on the display. If using a text  
terminal, you can control the progress of the search from the terminals keyboard by  
performing the following steps:  
To hold the display temporarily, press Ctrl S  
To continue the display, press Ctrl Q  
To halt the search, press Esc  
These flow-control commands do not work with a bitmapped display, but such a display can  
show more than forty lines of text, so they are unnecessary.  
To search for devices of just one type that actually contain bootable media, go to the Main  
Menu of the Boot Console Interface and then type the following at the prompt:  
Main Menu: Enter a command > search ipl device_type  
where device_type is one of the following:  
scsiis the built-in fast, Ultra2 Wide LVD (Low Voltage Differential) SCSI bus.  
lanis all connections to the built-in LAN.  
ideis the built-in CD drive.  
pcinis an optional plug-in device in PCI slot number n.  
diskis any bootable device other than LAN.  
Sta ble Stor a ge  
Stable Storage is non-volatile memory associated with each PA-RISC processor module.  
Stable storage is used by the processor (CPU) to store device path information, the state of  
the boot flags, HPMC error information, and operating system initialization data.

Dealing with a Boot Failure  
Boot Com m a n d Nota tion s  
The bootcommand supports the following two notations:  
Mnemonic  
Path number  
Type help scsior help lanfor more information on the boot path parameters.  
Here are examples of mnemonic notation:  
bootwith no parameters selects the primary boot path in stable storage.  
boot with the alternate or alt parameter selects the alternate boot path in stable  
storage.  
Here is an example of path number notation:  
boot p1attempts to boot from the second path in a list generated by a previous search  
command.  
Su p p or ted Boot Pa th s  
SCSI devices are bootable when connected to the SCSI port on the system. Diskless  
workstations can only boot from the LAN port on the system board. The workstation can  
be booted from the CD-ROM for software installation.  
ISL En vir on m en t  
The ISL environment provides the means to load the operating system (HP-UX)  
environment. The ISL environment also provides an off-line platform to execute diagnostic  
and utility programs from a boot device when HP-UX does not load.  
The ISL program is the first program loaded into main memory from an external media  
(LAN, disk, or tape) and launched by the initial program loader (IPL) routine during the  
Boot Administration environment.  
The ISL environment provides the following capabilities:  
Execute user-entered commands to modify boot device paths and boot options in stable  
storage.  
Run off-line diagnostic programs and utilities.  
Provide automatic booting of the HP-UX operating system after power-on or reset.  
The ISL program provides a stand-alone environment for loading off-line diagnostic and  
utility programs from the LIF directory. The ISL program also provides user commands to  
configure the boot parameters into Stable Storage.

Troubleshooting  
Selftest Failures  
Selftest Fa ilu r es  
Chassis codes are the key to debugging selftest errors. If a failure is found during selftest,  
chassis codes are displayed in the LCD. The procedure for using these codes to debug a  
failure is as follows:  
1. Using Table 3-2, which starts on the next page, find the chassis code listed on the LCD.  
2. To get additional information about failures from the Boot Console Handler, use the  
Service Menus pim, pdt, and ChassisCodescommands.  
In the following table, the FRU column shows messages printed on the LCD that refer to  
system FRUs. Only FLTcodes have FRUs associated with them. Some WRNcodes are also  
device specific, especially to IODC calls; for example, 8xxxcodes. TSTand INIcodes do not  
necessarily correspond to any FRU. All codes are listed in numeric order.  
NOTE  
Because the B2000 workstation is a single-board system, references to the  
I/O BD(I/O board) in chassis codes displayed on the LCD and listed in Table  
3-2 are actually references to the SYS BD(system board).

Memory Failures  
Mem or y Fa ilu r es  
The B2000 system implements Memory Page Deallocation. This feature allows the  
workstation to provide information to the operating system about memory failures.  
HP-UX 10.20 uses information to map out failing memory areas and continue normal  
operation. You can use the command memrptwith the detailswitch to obtain information  
about the Memory Page Deallocation Table (PDT) as well as single-bit errors logged by the  
system, as follows:  
# /usr/sbin/sysdiag Enter  
DUI > logtool Enter  
LOGTOOL> memrpt detail Enter  
The PDT can also be checked using the pdt command in the Service menu of the Boot  
Console Handler (refer to Chapter 6).  
For allowable memory configurations, see the Memorysection on page 38.

Running ODE-Based Diagnostics  
Ru n n in g ODE-Ba sed Dia gn ostics  
The Offline Diagnostic Environment (ODE) consists of diagnostic modules for testing and  
verifying system operation. ODE provides all the necessary functions for the user to load  
specified tests and interact with those tests.  
ODE is an ISL utility. To boot ODE:  
1. Invoke the ISL environment from the system disk or CD.  
2. Type ode Enter after the ISL> prompt to invoke ODE from the LIF directory on the  
system disk. The prompt changes to ODE>.  
Not all of the test modules are available on all systems. To see what test modules are  
available to run on this system, type lsat the ODE>prompt. The available modules include  
the following:  
wdiagtests and verifies the basic functionality of the PA-RISC chip. This tool tests the  
CPU, cache, TLB, and floating point functions.  
memtesttests and verifies the memory arrays. If an error is detected, the diagnostic  
reports the memory card and its slot number that needs replacement. It also provides a  
map of the memory configuration so that the user can identify the types of memory and  
its slot location.  
mapperidentifies the configuration of HPPA systems. It displays path, identification,  
and revision information of I/O components, configuration of memory controllers,  
processors, co-processors, cache, and TLB, as well as processor board component  
revisions and values of various HPPA system identifiers, revisions, and capabilities.  
astrodiagtests and verifies the basic functionality of the Astro memory/IO controller  
chip.  
siodiag tests and verifies the functionality of the super IO multifunction IO chip,  
including serial, parallel, USB, and so forth.  
For further information on the various ODE commands and a complete listing of the  
command set, type help Enter at the ODE> prompt or at the prompt of one of the test  
modules.  
Usin g th e P IM Du m p Tool to Decod e HP MCs  
If the system HPMC and halts, the Boot Console Handlers Service menu provides a PIM  
dump tool that can analyze the HPMC dump and attempt to decode it for analysis. It will  
point to the failing FRU or memory location if it is memory related. For information on  
using the Boot Console Handler, see Chapter 6.

This section explains how to remove and replace (install) a hard disk drive in the B2000  
workstation. After replacing or installing a hard disk drive, be sure to follow the  
procedures in the section Configuring a Hard Disk Drive as a File Systemon page 33 to  
configure the hard disk drive.  
The B2000 workstation can have a maximum of two hard disk drives. These internal hard  
disk drives are devices on the Ultra2 Wide Low-Voltage Differential SCSI bus. The hard  
disk drive that came with the workstation was set to SCSI ID 6 on the bus. If you are  
adding a second hard disk drive, the second hard disk drive will use SCSI ID 5. Note that  
the two slots for the hard disk drives have SCSI ID numbers 6 and 5 preassigned to them,  
and that SCSI ID 6 is the system disk. You will not be able to change these SCSI ID  
numbers.  
CAUTION  
Hard disk drives are susceptible to mechanical and electrostatic shock. When  
handling the drive, always wear the static-grounding wrist strap that came in  
the hard disk drive kit. Always handle the drive carefully.  
Rem ovin g a H a r d Disk Dr ive  
CAUTION  
NOTE  
To remove a hard disk drive, the workstation must be turned off.  
There are no cables to disconnect when removing a hard disk drive.  
NOTE  
If you are removing a hard disk drive that has a mounted file system on it,  
you will need to unmount it. This should be done before you remove the hard  
disk drive itself from the workstation.  
To unmount a file system on a hard disk drive, follow the procedure in the  
section Removing a Hard Disk Drive as a File Systemon page 35.  
Perform the following steps to remove a hard disk drive:  
1. Open the left side panel of the workstation as shown in the section Opening the Left  
Side Panel.As you face the open, left side of the workstation, the hard disk drives are  
on the right side. The lower hard disk drive (SCSI ID 5) is the one discussed in this  
section. See Figure 4-25.

The B2000 has three fans, which are shown in Figure 4-50: I/O fan, system fan, and  
processor (turbocooler) fan. A chassis code in the workstations LCD which indicates that a  
fan has failed (FLT D01n) or is running too slowly (WRN D02n) within a B2000 workstation  
specifies the fan number, n. Figure 4-50 notes the number (n) for each fan. For more  
information on identifying either a fan that has failed or one that is running too slowly, see  
Fan Faults and Warningson page 48.

Boot Console Handler  
Booting the Workstation  
Bootin g th e Wor k sta tion  
You usually start the system by turning it on and waiting for HP-UX to boot automatically.  
However, you may not always want the usual boot sequence to occur.  
For example, you may want to start the system from an operating system that is stored on  
a device that is different from the usual boot device. If the normal operating system kernel  
or the disk on which it resides becomes damaged or unusable, you may wish to boot from a  
different disk or perhaps another type of device, such as a CD drive.  
Here are some possible booting scenarios you may encounter:  
If you know which device you want to boot from, and you know that it contains a  
bootable operating system, follow the directions in Accessing the Boot Console  
Handlerearlier in this chapter, and then type the following at the prompt:  
Main Menu: Enter command > boot device  
where deviceis the hardware path to the device, specified in Mnemonic Style  
Notation. For example, if you wish to boot an operating system that is stored on a  
DDS-format tape drive that is located at the hardware path scsi.1.0, you would type  
the following command at the prompt and press Enter:  
Main Menu: Enter command > boot scsi.1.0  
If you do not know which device or the hardware path for the device you want to boot  
from, then type the following at the prompt and press Enter:  
Main Menu: Enter command > search  
A message similar to the following will be displayed:  
Path Number Device Path  
Device Type  
----------- ---------------- -----------  
P0  
P1  
IDE  
SCSI.6.0  
TEAC CD-532E-B  
SEAGATE ST39102LC  
At the prompt, you might type the following and press Enter:  
Main Menu: Enter command > boot P1  
Note that the operating system on the specified device (P1) is used to boot the system  
(also see the section Searching for Bootable Media).

Boot Console Handler  
Booting the Workstation  
If you wish to interact with the Initial System Loader (ISL) before booting the system,  
follow the directions in Accessing the Boot Console Handlerearlier in this chapter,  
and then type the following at the prompt:  
Main Menu: Enter command > boot device  
The following prompt will appear:  
Interact with ISL (Y,N,Q)>  
Answering yes (Y) causes the ISL to be loaded from the specified device. After a short  
time, the following prompt appears on the screen:  
ISL>  
ISL is the program that actually controls the loading of the operating system. By  
interacting with ISL, you can choose to load an alternate version of the HP-UX  
operating system. If you do not want to interact with ISL, you must enter no (N).  
For example, if the usual kernel (/stand/vmunix) on the root disk (scsi.6.0) has  
become corrupted, and you wish to boot the system from the backup kernel  
(/stand/vmunix.prev), type the following at the ISL>prompt and press Enter:  
ISL> hpux /stand/vmunix.prev  
If you do not know which media in the file systems have bootable operating systems,  
you can find them with the searchiplcommand. See the next section, Searching for  
Bootable Media.”

To list devices that contain bootable media, follow the directions in Accessing the Boot  
Console Handlerearlier in this chapter, and then type the following at the prompt and  
press Enter:  
Main Menu: Enter command> search ipl  
The search command searches all buses. The search may turn up more devices than there  
are lines on the display. If you are using a text terminal, you may control the progress of  
the search from the terminals keyboard by using these keystrokes:  
Ctrl S  
Ctrl Q  
Temporarily suspends the search.  
Continues the search.  
Any Other Key Stops the search.  
These flow-control keystrokes do not work with a bitmapped display, but such a display  
can show more than forty lines of text, so you are unlikely to need them.  
To search for devices of just one type that actually contain bootable media, follow the  
directions in Accessing the Boot Console Handlerearlier in this chapter, and then type  
the following at the prompt and press Enter:  
Main Menu: Enter command> search ipl device_type

Boot Console Handler  
Setting the Auto Boot and Auto Search Flags  
Settin g th e Au to Boot a n d Au to Sea r ch F la gs  
The autobootand autosearchflags are variables stored in the systems nonvolatile  
memory. (Nonvolatile memory retains its contents even after power is turned off.) If you  
reset these flags to new values, the change takes effect the next time you reboot the  
workstation.  
The autobootflag boots the operating system whenever the workstation is turned on.  
If autobootis set to on, the system automatically attempts to boot the operating system  
when turned on. If autobootis set to off, the system enters the boot administration mode  
of the Boot Console Handlers user interface.  
The state of the autosearchflag determines how the system seeks a boot device during  
auto boot. If autosearchis set to on, the system will search for other boot devices if the  
primary boot device is not available. If autosearchis off, the system will default to the  
boot administration mode if it cant see the primary boot device.  
To examine the state of the autobootand autosearchflags, type the following at the  
prompt and press Enter:  
Configuration Menu: Enter command> auto  
To change the state of the auto boot or auto search flags, type the following at the prompt  
and press Enter:  
Configuration Menu: Enter command> auto boot state  
or

ISL Environment  
ISL En vir on m en t  
The ISL environment provides the means to load the operating system (HP-UX)  
environment. The ISL environment also provides an offline platform to execute optional  
diagnostic and utility programs from a boot device when HP-UX does not load.  
The ISL program is the first program loaded into main memory from an external medium  
(LAN, disk, or tape) and launched by the initial program loader (IPL) routine from the  
Boot Administration environment.  
The ISL environment provides the following capabilities:  
Execute user-entered commands to modify boot device paths and boot options in stable  
storage.  
Run offline diagnostic programs and utilities  
Provide automatic booting of the HP-UX operating system after power-on or reset  
In vok in g ISL fr om th e Boot Con sole Ha n d ler  
Perform the following steps to invoke ISL from the Boot Console Handler:  
1. Follow the directions in Accessing the Boot Console Handleron page 142, and then  
type the following at the prompt and press Enter:  
Main Menu: Enter command > boot device  
You are prompted:  
Interact with ISL (Y, N, or Q) >y  
2. Answering yes (y) causes the ISL to be loaded from the specified device. After a short  
time, the following prompt appears on the screen:  
ISL>  
ISL is the program that actually controls the loading of the operating system. By  
interacting with ISL, you can choose to load an alternate version of the HP-UX  
operating system.  
For example, if the usual kernel (/stand/vmunix) on the root disk (scsi.6.0) has  
become corrupted, and you wish to boot the workstation from the backup kernel  
(/stand/vmunix.prev), type the following at the ISL>prompt and press Enter:

Obtaining and Updating System Firmware  
Obta in in g a n d Up d a tin g System Fir m w a r e  
To update a systems firmware, obtain the firmware patch from the patch server website at  
one of the following URLs:  
http://us-external_support.hp.com  
http://europe-external_support.hp.com  
The patch file is a combined shared file that contains an ASCII cataloging file, a readme  
type ASCII file, and the firmware LIF binary file. The LIF volume is bootable to ODE,  
which in turn runs the UPDATER utility to download the firmware image files.  
To identify the current version of the firmware on the system to be updated, re-boot the  
system and do the following:  
1. Interrupt the boot process and, from the Boot Console Handler prompt, type  
<information> and press Enter.  
2. Identify the firmware revision. The last two digits in the patch name indicate the  
revision.  
To install the firmware update, follow the directions in the readmefile.  
A new method to update the PA8500/8600 workstation system firmware is available  
January 2000 as an OS patch. The initial patch is PHSS_19794on HP-UX 10.20 ACE 9912  
and PHSS_20146on HP-UX 11.00 containing revision 3.1 system firmware. It will be  
superceded with higher revision firmware patches as they are released. You can find the  
patches by searching for firmware patchon the OS patch site.  
Perform the installation by using swinstalland following the installation process. This  
will cause a reboot to flash the firmware update and then another reboot to initialize the  
system hardware with the new firmware revision. This process has the advantage of  
starting the installation from the operating system, requires no special hardware such as a  
DAT tape, and requires no user intervention other than waiting for the two reboots.

Emissions Regulations  
Em ission s Regu la tion s  
The HP VISUALIZE B2000 workstation is FCC Class B compliant. Note that if a video out  
cable is connected to your Video Out card, then your workstation is no longer FCC Class B  
compliant as stated in the subsequent section Special Video Configuration Statement.”  
For F CC B Ap p lica tion s  
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital  
device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC rules and the Canadian Department of  
Communications. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against  
harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses, and can  
radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the  
instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is  
no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment  
does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception (determined by turning the  
equipment off and on), you should try to correct the interference by one or more of the  
following measures:  
Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.  
Increase the separation between the equipment and the receiver.  
Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the  
receiver is connected.  
Ask the dealer or an experienced radio/television technician for help.  
Hewlett-Packard's system certification tests were conducted with HP- supported  
peripheral devices and HP-shielded cables, such as those you receive with your  
workstation. Changes or modifications not expressly approved by Hewlett-Packard could  
void the user's authority to operate the equipment.  
Operation of this device is subject to the following conditions:  
This device may not cause harmful interference.  
This device must accept interference received, including interference that may cause  
undesired operation.  
Cables used with this device must be properly shielded to comply with the requirements  
of the FCC.
