Chuck,

Thanks for the follow up.   It is nice to learn how things ended.   

Jumpers, bent pins, bad cables, oh my.   It happens to the best of us.

:-)

Exactly what kind of drive is it and did you set the SCSI ID properly?

On the back of the box where the SCSI terminator is, there is a yellow light for 
term power that is lit.  Other light is for SCSI test and is out.  Is there a 
way to check to see if the terminator went bad?  Is there a possibility that 
this went bad between a shut down and the a reboot?

Nothing in mapper means either a SCSI address conflict or no termination on
the SCSI chain.

Thanks everyone for replying. I didn't get anything on my blackberry and
just 
found everyone's responses in my trash folder.  The weird thing is I didn't
see 
anything in mapper.  I'll try forcing the boot path to tape drive in the 
morning, there is still another football game to go :)

Hi Chuck,

The most likely culprit is that the boot path is wrong.

Depending on the box, you can do an SEA to find out the path of the tape 
drive(s) and (depending on the box) either change the boot path with the
PATH 
command at the Main Menu, or if the box allows, do a BO path address (BO 
10/4/0.5 for instance).

That should get you rolling again.

Subject: [HP3000-L] System won't boot

After replacing ldev 2 I am trying to boot the system from CSLT.  Getting
this
error ENTRY_TEST STATUS = 0  FAILED TO INITIALIZE ENTRY_INIT STATUS = -4

I have tried 2 different CSLT tapes and get the same error.

Anyone have any ideas?
