32 MB to 2 GB (3.2 GB on J2240 only or 4 GB if you are run- ning HP-UX 11.x). Memory can be configured in combinations of pairs of 32 MB, 128 MB and 256 MB DIMM pairs. Memory DIMMs must be installed in pairs of equal size, with 256 MB DIMM pairs installed first, followed by 128 MB, then 64 MB and finally, 32 MB DIMM pairs.
Monitor-Type Selection The J Class workstation supports the following three monitors: 20-inch, 1280x1024 color monitor (A4030/31) 21–inch, 1600x1200 color monitor (A4576A) The monitor type does not have to be changed on this workstation since the worksta- tion is set up to support these monitors. However, if for some reason the monitor type needs to change, refer to Chapter 9 of this book.
This chapter provides information about isolating a failing component, known as a Field Replaceable Unit (FRU), in a J Class workstation. To troubleshoot a J Class workstation, you must be familiar with the HP-UX operat- ing system and be able to start and stop processes. You should also be familiar with the boot ROM diagnostics, ISL diagnostics, and the Support Tools Manager online tests, which we describe in this chapter.

ISL is the program that actually controls the loading of the operating system. By interacting with ISL, you can choose to load an alternate version of the HP-UX operating system. For example, if the usual kernel (/stand/vmunix for 10.20) on the root disk (fwscsi.6.0) has become corrupted, boot the workstation from the backup ker-...
To find the location of the bootable operating systems on the various media in the file system, use the search command. Searching for Bootable Media To list all devices that may contain bootable media, go to the Main Menu of the Boot Console Interface and then type the following at the prompt: Main Menu: Enter a command or a menu >...
Diskless workstations can only boot from the LAN port on the System card. ISL Environment The ISL environment provides the means to load the operating system (HP-UX) en- vironment. The ISL environment also provides an offline platform to execute diag- nostic and utility programs from a boot device when HP-UX does not load.
(Refer to Chapter 9). If a failing DIMM is replaced, use the command pdt clear in the Service menu to clear out the PDT. HP-UX 9.0x will halt upon detecting the presence of bad memory at boot up and display the following message:...

Running System Verification Tests HP-UX uses an online diagnostics product called the Support Tools Manager that allows system operation verification. Three interfaces are available with the Support Tools Manager: a command line in- terface (accessed through the cstm command), a menu-driven interface (accessed through the mstm command), and the graphical user interface (accessed through the xstm command).

Running ODE-Based Diagnostics The Offline Diagnostic Environment (ODE) consists of diagnostic modules for test- ing and verifying system operation. ODE provides all the necessary functions for the user to load specified tests and interact with those tests. ODE is an ISL utility. To boot ODE: Invoke the ISL environment from the system disk.
This PDC feature allows the workstation to provide information to the operating system about memory failures. HP-UX 10.x uses PDC information to map out failing memory areas and continue normal operation. You can use the command memrpt with the detail switch to obtain information about the Memory Page Deallocation Table (PDT) as well as single bit errors logged by the system.

Before performing these procedures, observe the following precautions: 1. Power off the system, the monitor, and any peripheral devices. Follow the directions in Using Your HP Workstation for shutting down. 2. Unplug the system unit power cord and the power cord of any peripheral devices from ac wall outlets.
Front Bezel This section describes how to remove the J Class front bezel or cover of the system unit. CAUTION: Do not attempt to operate the workstation with the front cover removed. The cover is needed for proper air flow for system cooling. 1.
CPU Assembly This section describes how to remove the J Class CPU assembly. To remove the CPU assembly, open the system unit and follow these steps: 1. Remove the two screws in the center of the CPU Assembly. 2. Pull the ejector latches on the left side, top and bottom of the CPU Assembly to release the assembly from the internal connectors.
When replacing the CPU Assembly follow these steps: 1. Pull drawer latches to open position. 2. Align the top of the CPU assembly with the guides on the system unit. Then, align the bottom with the guides and slide the CPU Assembly into the system unit.
Memory DIMM Removal Before removing memory DIMMs, open the system unit and remove the CPU assem- bly. Figure 5–12 shows the memory DIMM locations on the CPU Assembly. Figure 5–13 and Figure 5–14 show how to remove the memory DIMMs. Perform the following steps to remove a memory DIMM from the system unit: 1.
2. Remove the memory retention bracket, if equipped, shown in Figure 5–13 by removing the two attachment screws. Memory Bracket Figure 5–13. Memory Retention Bracket 3. To remove a memory DIMM, open the ejector handles on both sides of the DIMM.
Memory DIMM Installation Before installing memory DIMMs, open the system unit and remove the CPU assem- bly. Refer to Chapter 3 for information about memory DIMM configurations. 1. To install a new memory DIMM, open the ejector tabs and line the DIMM up with the guides as shown in Figure 5–15, making sure to put the notched end to- ward the white ejector handle.
Processor Module To remove or replace a processor module, perform the following procedures: Open the system unit Remove the CPU assembly NOTICES: All processors must be the same type. Therefore 100 MHz/256 K cache, 120 MHz/256 K cache, and 120 MHz/1 M cache processors are incompatible. If mixed, selftest will fail.
