Power Failure Detected

You may see the following message:

This message indicates that the system has detected that the AC input voltage has fallen below an acceptable level. This is an informational message that is logged to /var/adm/SYSLOG.

Although this is an informational message, it's a good idea to check all of the AC outlets and connections, and check the system components for disk drive failures or overheated boards. On Challenge and Onyx systems, the system controller attempts to gracefully shut down the system; this includes stopping all processes and synchronizing the disk. For additional information, refer to the section titled Using System Controller in the Challenge and Onyx Diagnostic Roadmap.
