Read Progress Indicators from Last System Boot

Processor checkpoints, IPLROS checkpoints, and/or AIX configuration codes,
from the previous system boot. This information can be useful in diagnosing
system faults.
The progress indicator codes are listed from top (latest) to bottom (oldest).
This information is not stored in nonvolatile storage. If the system is powered
down using the power-on button on the operator panel, this information is
retained. If the ac power is disconnected from the system, this information will be
lost. For an example, refer to “LCD Progress Indicator Log” on page 77.

working system resources. If POST errors occur during startup, this error log,
when used with the diagnostics, helps to isolate faults. Refer to “System POST
Errors” on page 76 for an example of this error log.
