%2FIND A WIZARD:%1

.BEGIN INDENT 5

Before you do anything, you should try to find a wizard.  Try paging,
or if necessary call one at home.

Phone numbers:
.BEGIN INDENT 5 NOFILL

%4
ME  (9) 329-9081
MRC (9) 941-1096, 21-191 (beeper), (9) 323-6540 (dinner time)
.END

If you call a wizard at home, he may dial up the CTY and fix it from
home.  %2Stand by%1 in case he asks you to do something like restart
the KA-10 or check status lights until the system is again running or
he tells you otherwise.

%2Always%1 watch extension 7-4975 (the machine room extension)
to make sure a wizard is not trying to call you.  If you hear the phone
ring or see that extension flashing, %2pick it up%1!  This is especially
true if you beep MRC!!!

If that fails, you'll have to fix it yourself.  Make sure there isn't
a wizard already working on the problem; the yellow card on the CTY
should say so but check anyway.  After you fix it, make a note in the
log with the date and time of the failure, and %2sign it%1.

%2FIXING THE SYSTEM:%1

.BEGIN INDENT 5
Most crashes are bug traps and will print a message followed by:

←%4FIND A WIZARD or type "$P".  $ means ESC.  YOU'RE IN DDT.%1

If it prints this, try typing [ESC]%4P%1 and a couple of
[RETURN]s.  If you get monitor dots, you're winning.  Type %4BEEP%1 and
[RETURN] to tell everybody the good news.  %2Don't forget to log the
crash!%1

If after you type %4$P%1 the same thing happens, try
%4$P%1 again.  If it repeatedly happens, you'll have to reload.
Go to step 1 below.

If after you type %4$P%1 the system hangs, %2find a wizard%1.
This is especially true if it follows a disk hung timeout.  Reloading
will probably %2not%1 help.

If the system is printing many %4PARITY ERROR%1 messages, you will
have to reset the losing memory.  If you don't know how to do this,
find somebody who does; reloading the system won't help!  Sometimes
even resetting the memory won't help; in that case the memories have
to be reconfigured or fixed.  You should leave that for a wizard to do.

If the machine has powered itself off (ie, the console PDP-11 and power
lights are off), then an overtemp probably happened.  Get help.  Do
%2NOT%1 power the system back on unless a wizard tells you to do so!

If an obscure message like %4?10 CLKOP%1 or %4?10 TTI%1 was printed on
the CTY, a memory is probably losing (hung or powered off).  Get help.

If no message was printed, or some message which doesn't look like
the example above, you will have to reload.
.END

%2RELOADING:%1

.BEGIN INDENT 5
1.  If there has been a power failure, go to 100.

2.  If a message such as %4KL10 Halted ...%1 appears followed by %4>.%1
at the left margin go to step 4.  The important part is that %4>.%1
should appear to signify that KLDCP is listening.

3.  Type %4↑X%1 (ie, hold down %4CTRL%1 and type %4X%1).  The response
should be %4KLDCP%1, a CRLF, and a period.  You may sometimes have to
wait a few seconds for this response.  If you don't get a period or
%4>.%1 at the left margin, go to 100.

4.  Type %4DS%1 and [RETURN].  If you get the response %4DSKDMP%1 go to
step 5.  If you get the message %4DEPOSIT/EXAMINE ERROR IN DS%1 then
perform step 102 and repeat step 4. Otherwise if %4DS%1 doesn't get you
%4DSKDMP%1, go to 100.

5.  Type %4WAITS%1 and [RETURN].  If the system reloads and starts you
are winning.  Otherwise get help.  %2Don't forget to log the crash!%1
.END

%2Don't come here unless directed by the steps above.%1

.BEGIN INDENT 5
100.  If the PDP-11 is running and you are talking to KLDCP, go to
step 101.  Make sure a DECtape labeled "KL10 bootstrap" is mounted on
a PDP-11 DECtape drive that is selected to unit 0 and is enabled for
"remote" (ie, computer) operation.  Press "LOAD DECTAPE" [located
above and to the left of the red "Emergency Power Off" button] and
hold it for at least a slow count to one.  The DECtape should spin and
eventually something like %4TCDP monitor%1 should be typed.  Type in
%4KLDCP%1 and [RETURN].  KLDCP should load and type a message - go to
step 101.  If you don't get to TCDP you might try pressing the LOAD
DECTAPE button again.  If you get to TCDP and the %4KLDCP%1 command
doesn't work, get help.

101.  If there's been a power failure you will have to reload the
KL10's microcode.  Type %4DT0 LR SU%1 to KLDCP and [RETURN].  If any
error messages are printed, get help.  Type %4SW 37 600000%1 and
[RETURN].

102.  After loading the microcode, you must configure the memory
adapter by typing %4I X4%1 and [RETURN].  If the system is running
with reduced memory this is probably the wrong thing.  Look at the
yellow card on the lower right-hand side of the CTY's keyboard to make
sure (it should say either %4I X4%1 or %4I X2%1).

103.  Now try steps 4 and 5.  If the command %4DS%1 gives the message
%4DSKDMP BOOT NOT LOADED, USE LD COMMAND%1, then load DSKDMP boot
into the PDP-11 by %4LD BOOT%1 and [RETURN].  If that doesn't work,
either the memory adapter is configured wrong (step 102) or a memory
is losing.  Get help.

%2RESTARTING THE KA-10:%1

.BEGIN INDENT 5
These instructions are for restarting the KA-10, which is the
secondary processor.  They assume that the main timesharing system
itself is running; presumably you are reading this because you were
told to restart the KA-10 by an XGP spooling of yours.  As always,
make sure a wizard is not already working on it.

The KA-10 is the black computer (the KL-10 is blue).  Its console
panel should be about five feet to the right of this sheet.  It will
have a lot of lights and switches on it.

To %2restart%1 the KA, first check the KA's address switches to be sure
that they are set to 204.  If you don't know how to do this, don't worry
since its switches should always be set to 204.

Now, restart the KA by pressing the RESET button on the KA-10 console
panel, then pressing the START button.  You should get a message on the
teletype next to the KA saying something like %4KA10 RESTARTED%1.

If you don't get this message, or if it is followed by some other message
that looks like an error message, try reloading the KA-10 (%2not%1 the
regular system!!).

To %2reload%1 the KA, press the KA-10 RESET button again.  Go to the KL-10
CTY and type %4P2%1 and [RETURN].  When it finishes, press the START button
on the KA-10 console panel.  If it doesn't work now, get help.
