Friends,
Got a new FAS270, 14 x 144GB Disks. At power up, it displays the following message on the console and nothing else happens, not even after about five minutes:

There are no error LEDs on, the Power LED is on and is green. The Status LEDs are off. The terminator on is set to ON. The Disk LEDs are on and green. The Shelf ID is 1 but this is not displayed in the front. I tried to boot the backup, the same problem occured.
Information to solving this problem will be appreciated.

Friends,
Thanks a lot.
I got to the site to try the hints given, but to my surprise the machine booted normally without doing anything. Surprising. I then ran boot diag and ran all tests, PASSED.
The machine has been installed and working OK now.
Regards, Gabriel.
