DS20 crashes and will not HALT

The DS20 (continuing saga) running TRU64 v5.0 with a KZPAC-CA controller card unexpectantly crashes and reboots. Finally it went down and will not reboot. I continually get the 'waiting for dra.0.0.... to poll'.

I have tried to HALT the system in an attempt to investigate but my attempts to hit the HALT button and have the system halt have been in vain.

I thought the HALT button would work no matter what happened to the system? Finally, the system does not even have any power when I hit the start button. Everything seems to be dead. I am leaving it for a few moments but my question is....

Has anyone experienced this situation with system crashes and HALT button failure before?

Thank you again

Jane
