Description
This document is intended to help figure out connection problems to an RSC card.

This could be unable to ping the card. Unable to login to the card. Or the RSC not responding.



Steps to Follow
Troubleshooting Steps for RSC Software

Check items in order.

  1. Verify RSC is configured and current. This meas make sure the RSC software has been loaded onto the system. It has been configured for use. See <Document: 1011569.1> How To Verify Reomte System Controller(RSC) is Configured and Current. Be sure if you are setting the card up for a network connection that the correct IP address, netmask, and gateway have been assigned. If you do not know what these values should be, be sure to ask your network administrator.

  1. Confirm password is correct. If you are unsure the password is correct or unable to login it might be best to create a new user or give a user a new password. See <Document: 1002927.1> How to Create or Change a Password on the Sun[TM] Remote System Control (RSC) card.   

  2. Verify still cannot get to the console after re-seating the RSC card. <Document: 1005513.1> How to Re-seat or Replace the Remote System Controller (RSC/SC) Card. 

  3. Verify still cannot get to the console after replacing the RSC card. <Document: 1005513.1> How to Re-seat or Replace the Remote System Controller (RSC/SC) Card.  

  4. At this point, if you have validated that each troubleshooting step above is true for your environment, and the issue still exists, further troubleshooting is required. Gather explorer data collector from the system. Then contact My Oracle Support for additional support.
