Now, thanks to some advice given by members of this list, last time it
happened I pressed the halt button and at the SRM prompt I issued the crash
command. Here is the result:
>>>crash
CPU 0 restarting
CP - RESTORE_TERM routine to be called
DUMP: 2048000 blocks available for dumping.
DUMP: 38258 wanted for a partial compressed dump.
DUMP: Allowing 2043902 of the 2047998 available on 0x808001
device string for dump = SCSI 0 16 0 0 0 0 0.
DUMP.prom: dev SCSI 0 16 0 0 0 0 0, block 1024000

succeeded
CP - RESTORE_TERM exited with hlt_req = 0, r0 = 00000001.00000000
halted CPU 0
halt code = 0
PC = fffffc0000485278
>>>
As you may guess, from this point on, I'm completely stuck. Any hints as to
how to continue?
TIA,
cl.
