Hi,

I reboot my machine (a LPAR on a P5 with HMC)
and when rebooting, it always enter in the diagnostic mode.

Before enter in this mode, this message appear to the console:

0514-440 cfgcon : failed to create log file, check path name, permissions and available space.

What's wrong? Any help will be appreciate, my machine is down. Thanks.
 
Sorry, but I have already made a google search and I've seen this topic and it doesn't help me.

Thanks to you...

Any idea, other...
 
Where it the LPAR profile set to boot from?
Try booting it into SMS and check that your default boot device is pointing to a hard disk and not something else - like a cdrom.

Add a little color to your PUTTY terminal: faq52-6627
 
ack! that should say "Where is"

When it displays that error message is there any specific LED displayed?
 
Check within the HMC that the lpar is set to boot normal
