Short Shell-Script to watch the LED-Codes

#1 (**permalink**) 01-05-2008, 10:06 AM

I found in some manual a short and nice shell script to
watch the LED-Codes from a booting machine,
but can't remember where -
can anybody help me?

For what kind of system?

If it is an older SP system you can use:
spled, or
spmon

For my newer p5 570's using csm, try:
csmstat -l

example:
/opt/csm/bin/csmstat -n 'unxt1' '-l'

You canwatch this display without a script by standing in front of
the display and looking at it

How can you be running a shell script on a machine that is booting?
How can you read an output only device?

Are you really looking for /usr/lib/methods/showled, which lets you
manipulate the led display.

If you talking about the SP nodes then use something like this:

while true
do
spmon -L <frame#>/<node#>
sleep 2
done
