The server is trying to boot from network... Send a "break" to the server over your terminal or the LOM and bring the server to the ok prompt. Investigate for the right boot device (disk), set the right boot device and try again.

You might want to connect a keyboard first?

How does this system normally boot? From a local disk or from the network?

If it normally would boot from a disk, then it cannot now see that disk for some reason.

If it normally would boot from the network, then it cannot now see the DHCP server to configure its network interface.

If he is connected via LOM, no local keyboard is needed.

Hi

the server only has one hard drive, and he starts on it.

Regards

Then tell the server to boot from that disk... Because now it tries to boot from network...

ok boot disk

it's a remote server, there is no keyboard on it
we can only do it through the rsc console

Yes, so as suggested by DukeNuke2, from the OBP prompt (ok>) tell it to boot from disk:

ok boot disk

or perhaps

ok boot disk0

Post back any error that gives.

yes, but the command boot does not exist on the rsc

but console does... Use that to gain access to the OBP and you should be at the ok prompt.
