Reset the Processors To Complete Updating the Processor Boot
Code (Both for OSM and TSM)
You must perform a Hard Reset action or equivalent (reload) of the processors after
you have updated the processor boot code and if you did not use the explicit online
boot code option in either TSM or OSM. Use the Hard Reset action (or Prime for
Reload action) action from either the OSM or TSM LLL to terminate all processes
running on a processor, stop the processor, clear the processor’s memory, and reset
the processor’s internal mapping tables.
1. Log on to the server using the OSM Low-Level Link or TSM Low-Level Link
Application.
2. On the toolbar, click Processor Status.
The Processor Status dialog box appears.
Note. You can also perform a hard reset using the TSM or OSM Low-Level Link on all
processors when you perform a system load instead of using the Reset action. See The Reset
Operation on page 11-8.
