B - 2
The MSS completes its
power-up and boot
procedures, but
thereÕs no noticeable
serial activity.
There is a problem with the
serial connection or the set-
up of the serial device.
Check the terminal setup and the
physical connections, including
the cable pinouts (see Appendix
C). Try another serial device or
cable, or cycle power on the MSS.
A rapidly-blinking OK LED
may signal boot failure.
Reboot the unit. When the MSS is
running normally, the OK LED
blinks every two seconds.
The terminal shows a
Boot> prompt rather
than a Local> prompt.
The MSS is not connected
properly to the Ethernet.
Ensure that the MSS is Þrmly
connected to a functional and
properly-terminated network
node.
The MSS Ethernet address is
invalid.
The MSS Ethernet address is
located on the bottom of the unit.
Use the Change Hardware
command to set the correct
address (see page B-5), then
reboot.
Init Noboot command was
entered.
See Entering Commands at the Boot
Prompt on page B-4.
The MSS passes
power-up diagnos-
tics, but attempts to
download new Flash
ROM code from a
network host.
If the OK LED blinks
rapidly, the Flash ROM code
may be corrupt.
Reboot the unit. If you get the
same message, you will need to
reload Flash ROM. See Reloading
MSS Software on page D-3.
If you did not request a
NetWare or TFTP boot, the
ßash ROM code is corrupt.
The unit will remain in boot
mode.
