I believe the system abort 55 message occurs when initializing ldev 1 very
early in the boot sequence
(although the notes in Error Messages manual 3 says a device other than the
console).
You might try running ODE (Offline Diagnostics Environment ) Mapper to see
if ldev 1 is responding, perhaps it has failed...
You can run ODE from tape by entering "ODE" at the "ISL" prompt instead of
"UPDATE NOCONFIG"
(it takes a while to load so be patient).
Then once ODE is loaded enter "MAPPER" then "RUN"
The map will display all the paths and devices, make sure all of your disks
are displayed.
Thanks,

Sometimes I really hate HP3000, because you forget what you had done 10 yrs
ago...
My last system failure on my machine was 10 yrs ago, when I was just trying
to put the machine together...
Its 979 and has 3 - 9 gb seagate disk drives on 10/4/24.6, 10/4/24.5 and
10/4/24.4.
It was working ok till this morning, when I tried to bring the system down
and do an?update from my sysgen made slt tape (from my secondary backup
machine).?
I started the system from the alt path using the SLT tape and at ISL prompt
I typed 'UPDATE NOCONFIG'.
Update got aborted with system failure:
System abort 55, subsys 146
info = -6953? subsys 213
system halt, $0037
Anything I tryed after this point (I even tried to do an "INSTALL" with the
original SLT tape made on this machine) I keep getting the same system halt
message.
Its been so long since the last time I tryed to figure out the system halt,
that is not even funny and any help will be very much appreciated, because I
am down...?
Thanks a million
Greg
