    Hi managers

    I've just added a new processor, and done lmf reset with an updated
    license, but for some reason, the processor won't come online. I've tried
    a reboot, but it has no effect.

    # /usr/sbin/psrinfo
    0 on-line since 02/27/2004 14:49:42
    1 off-line since 02/27/2004 14:49:42

    # /usr/sbin/lmf list
    Product Status Users: Total Active
    OSF-BASE active unlimited
    OSF-USR active unlimited
    MONITOR-UNIX active unlimited
    FORTRAN90-O active unlimited
    FORTRAN-O active unlimited
    CXXOSF active unlimited
    OSF-SVR active unlimited
    DECEVENT terminated

    # whoami
    root

    # /usr/sbin/psradm -n -a
    psradm: processor 1: Permission denied

    # /usr/sbin/online -v
    online: processor 1: Permission denied

    Why is processor 1 refusing to respond to online? I thought root could "do
    anything".

    Cheers
    Derek
