IBM eServer xSeries 226 Questions & Answers
IBM xSeries 3550 M3. One fan has failed. While waiting for a replacement can I stop the server from shutting down automatically?
Assuming that this is resolved as it appears to be an old, time-sensitive issue.
Although I would say that what you're asking would have been a design choice on IBM's part. The BMC would dictate fan curve and if one of the fans is not spinning at the minimal RPM - as specified in that fan curve - then it would obviously shut the system down to protect it from heat damage.
You may be able to adjust this using various commands in the BMC but I am not familiar with IBM's hardware. (Which is likely different in the same way that Dell's iDRAC differs from HP's iLO, etc.)
I'd say it's unlikely either way.

I would check the firmware/bios as these had a known issue.
Check with IBM for the latest firmware and BIOS.
Update me if this does not resolve the problem.
Howto clear log on server ibm
Hi,
Server is model is not mentioned.
You can clear logs by this way..
1: Get into BIOS and there you could see server logs. Clear those logs
2: Get into IMM and you can find logs there. Clear those logs (This is applicable to servers with IMM and Uefi firmwares)
3: Get into BIOS and find out IPMI logs. Its under Advanced settings.
Clear those (This is applicable for older x series machines with BIOS firmwares)
Thanks

Guide events have changed the identification protocol and a refreshment of the input data to the Event ID structure will fix the problem. This must be done within 24 hours of the last formal event or else the system will crash and no longer be salvable.
Cpu fan error
Well it usally means the fan is bad it may work and keep your CPU cool but it can still send the code just replace the fan
Can we hard reboot a server through avocent?
Depending on version you have the should numerous boot options, like power off / on, ctrl alt del, and so on. You may also require admin rights. Some accounts only have read only.
SyncMaster 753 DFX 17'' CRT show monochrome image
Oh vintage 386sx? In old graphics cards, there were DIP Switches to configure either to use as monchrome mode or color mode. Did you configure graphics card properly ? Moreover try using mode command to change monochrome to color.
IBM wheelwriter 6 only types when I press hard to the keys. Normal typing doesn't activate key strikes. Is there a sensitivity adjustment on the wheelwriter 6?
The IBM Wheelwriter 6 typewriter does not have a user-adjustable sensitivity setting for key strikes. However, the issue you're describing might be related to the keyboard mechanism, individual key switches, or the impact solenoid. Here are some steps you can take to troubleshoot and potentially resolve the issue:
- Clean and Lubricate: Over time, dust, dirt, and debris can accumulate inside the typewriter, affecting key movement. Try gently cleaning the keyboard area, especially around the key switches and mechanisms. Additionally, applying a small amount of appropriate lubricant to the moving parts might help improve key movement.
- Key Switches: Each key has its own mechanical switch underneath. If a key requires more force than usual to activate, it could be due to a worn or dirty switch. You might need to disassemble the typewriter to access and clean the key switches.
- Impact Solenoid: The impact solenoid is responsible for striking the print head against the paper to make an impression. If the solenoid is weak or sticking, it could result in the behavior you're describing. Try cleaning and lubricating the solenoid. If the problem persists, the solenoid might need to be replaced.
- Key Flex: The flex you feel in the keyboard might be contributing to the issue. If the keyboard has any physical damage or if the flex circuit is not seated properly, it can affect key activation. Carefully inspect the keyboard area for any visible damage or misalignment.
- Professional Repair: If the above steps do not resolve the issue, it might be best to seek the assistance of a professional typewriter technician. They have experience with these machines and can diagnose and repair mechanical issues more accurately.
