Check Critical System Processes
3. Select an item in the tree pane that shows alarm conditions, and then click the
Alarms tab to view the alarms associated with the selected item.
If a yellow triangle appears over an enclosure diagram, determine the cause of
the problem. Expand the tree. Correct the problem if possible. Determine if you
can proceed without affecting the installation of software. All processors, all
service processors, the $SYSTEM volume, the $DSMSCM volume, and the
$AUDIT volume must be working properly.
If a red triangle appears over an enclosure diagram, you have a severe system
problem. Do not continue with the upgrade procedure. Contact your service
provider.
To find out more about an item, select Display>Alarms. Click Detail on the
Alarms screen for specific information on the resource and problem.
Check Critical System Processes
Verify the status of all software processes that are critical for your system to operate
normally:
1. Make a list of all critical system processes for your system.
2. At a TACL prompt, start SCF and enter a LISTDEV command.
3. Verify that the LISTDEV display includes all critical processes. For example:
1> scf listdev
