The Question is: I've got a VAXStation 3100 that i'm booting over a serial console (I asked you a question about setting this up previously). Now that i've got it to boot over a serial console, i am getting three error messages that seem to prevent the machine from booting. Unfortuntnely, i do not have any manuals for the machine, and all the VAX information i have read so far says nothing about ROM monitor error codes. I was hoping you could tell me what they might mean. When i boot the system, i see these three error messages: ? C 0080 0000.4001 ? 6 80A1 0000.4001 ?? 1 00C0 0011.700E Thanks for the help! The Answer is : Hardware problems are best handled by your service organization, not by the OpenVMS Wizard. The VAXstation 3100 self-test codes indicate: F MONO monochrome video circuit E CLK time of year clock D NVR non-volatile RAM C DZ serial controller B MEM memory test A MM memory management 9 FP floating point 8 IT interval timer 7 SCSI-A SCSI A bus (internal) 6 SCSI-B SCSI B bus (external) 5 SYS interrupt controller and Ethernet ID PROM 4 8PLN 8-plane graphics controller 3 not supported 2 not supported 1 NI Ethernet network circuits ? indicates a minor problem, one that will not interfere with normal system operation. ?? indicates a major problem, often affecting system operation. * indicates a device is present, but the ROM code was not executed. _ indicates a device or option that is not installed. It would appear you have nothing connected to your external SCSI (error 6), that you do not have your Ethernet hooked up (error 1), and that you have a problem with the serial line controller (either with the serial lines, with the keyboard, or the mouse) (error C)...
