HP UNIX GSP 介绍

主要介绍MP(MANAGEMENT PROCESSOR)卡中的一些命令及其说明

Hp Gsp 的特殊命令环境
在 console 上，登录状态下键入 ctrl + b 进入。用 he 察看相关命令，退出用 co

Guardian Service Processor (GSP)
The Guardian Service Processor (GSP) is a new console subsystem on N4000. The GSP console driver, the software component of the GSP, provides the following features on HP-UX:
Local console
port provides system console while HP-UX is running.
Remote session port establishes an HP-UX login session on the remote console.
Local session port establishes an HP-UX login session on the local console.
Internal console port supports firmware upgrade and diagnostics on GSP.
UPS port establishes a communication channel between the UPS daemon and UPS.
SAM provides configuration support (that is, modem and UPS connections) over the GSP serial ports. The insf(1M) and mksf(1M) commands create device files for the GSP serial ports.
The following commands have been changed to provide additional support for the GSP console:
• ttytype can determine the ID of the terminal connected to the local console port.

• stty supports status query and reset function of the GSP.
The GSP console driver for N4000 is based on the existing built-in serial port driver (asio0). Every serial port on the GSP adheres strictly to the Termio feature set; these features are described in the termio(7) and modem(7) man pages.
GSP Logging Capabilities

The introduction of GSP to the N4000 platform dramatically changes the way chassis operations and diagnostic evaluations are performed on a running system.
The new subsystem requires HP-UX to provide more information than was provided on previous platforms. HP-UX will continue to output the same chassis-codes and forward-progress indicators that have been provided in previous releases. On N4000 and subsequent systems, however, the codes are displayed on the Virtual Front Panel (VFP) of the system. Most of the existing four-hex digit chassis codes are enclosed in GSP-specific encoding.
The GSP subsystem interprets various forms of logging information from both firmware and software.
Several new software events will be logged, including:
• "Boot Complete" indicator
• Timestamp
• Periodic heartbeat, with:

timeout value (a time-limit within which another event must be logged before the system is declared "dead")

activity level indicating system usage
• Minimal LED control
In addition to existing four-hex digit chassis codes, the following information is sent with each event:
• Alert level
• CPU number


At the GSP prompt (GSP>) type he, to display the help menu, as shown:
(This is the old format help screen GSP A.01.06 and before)
Where: X is the current hardware revision, and A.XX.XX is the current firmware revision.

这就是所谓的 PDC ( Processor Denpendent Code ) 。在该状态下，系统管理员 可完成如下管理工作：
查看 Primary ， Alternate Boot Path
main menu> pa
就会列出 Primary ， Alternate Path 。
搜寻硬盘等可 Boot 机设备
main menu>sea
系统会列出所有可由它控制的硬盘的硬件地址及 CD-ROM 、 DDS 和 Build-in Lan 的硬件地址。所以，有时可用此方式判断系统不能 boot 机是否与根盘有关。
进单用户
main menu>bo pri
interact with ISL? yes
ISL>hpux –is
检查 HPMC 代码
象诸如 CPU 、内存、总线等的硬件故障，都会产生 HPMC(high priority Mechine Check ) Code ，那么查看的方法是：
Main Menu>ser
Service Menu>pim
如遇硬件问题，您打电话到惠普响应中心，硬件工程师极有可能请您帮助获得 HPMC Code 。
继续启动过程
Main Menu>bo pri
Interact with ISL? no
此外，再介绍一下如何观察系统启动时行自检的相应信息
a 、系统启动时的自检信息反映出自检的过程和结果，在主机的液晶屏上可以看到这些信息，比如“ 7XXX ”，一般表示和内存有关的信息。这些信息都可以查阅有关的手册得知其具体的意 义。
如果自检失败，相应的信息就会停留在主机的液晶屏上，根据这个信息就可以知道失败的原因。
b 、机器启动之后，在 CTRL ＋ B 的 SL 命令可以看到最后 50 个信息，但是，随着 CHASSIS 信息的不断显示，自检信息就会被冲掉。因此，系统启动之后，这些信息就看不到了。
c 、引导过程到硬盘时，会有配置硬件的信息，这些信息可以通过“ #desg ”命令和 /usr/adm/syslog/syslog.log 文件看到，相应运行级调用的 shell 程序过程可以在“ /etc/rc.log ”中看到
