CAUTION: This procedure results in loss of data. This procedure must be used only if the HMC
operating system is either not installed, incorrectly installed, or corrupted.
To create the RAID1 logical drive and to rebuild the content on that drive, run the following commands
from the Petitboot shell:
1. Create the RAID1 logical drive:
/bin/arcconf create 1 logicaldrive name "HMC Disk" max 1 0,0 0,1
2. Display the logical drive to confirm that is was created:
/bin/arcconf getconfig 1 ld
3. Enable the automatic rebuild of the logical drive:
/bin/arcconf setcontrollerparam 1 spareactivationmode 1
If you need to remove the RAID1 logical drive:
/bin/arcconf delete 1 logicaldrive 0

Sensor status

You can check the sensor status to quickly determine the general health of the system without using the
event codes.
To view the sensor status, use the following command:
openbmctool -U <username> -P <password> -H <BMC IP address or BMC host name> fru status
To view the sensor status and any corresponding event codes, use the following command:
openbmctool -U <username> -P <password> -H <BMC IP address or BMC host name> fru status -v
Sensors that have a status of present and functional do not require a service action. Sensors that have a
status of present and not functional require a service action.
Some occurrences of errors in the system might not appear in the sensor status. After you view the sensor
status, look for event codes to determine whether a service action is required.
