CLRNVRM
A problem might exist with the service processor NVRAM.
Perform the following:
- Is your system managed by the Hardware Management Console (HMC)?
- No: Continue with the next step.
- Yes: Continue with step 3.
- Perform the following:
- Power off the system.
- Using ASMI, select System Service Aids > Factory Configuration.
- Select Continue to clear the configuration.
Note: Clearing the configuration causes the loss of all the configured
system settings (such as the HMC access
and ASMI passwords, time of day, network configuration, hardware deconfiguration
policies, and so on) that you might have set by using the user interfaces.
Also, partition-related information and platform error logs are lost, and
the service processor is reset. Before continuing with this operation, make
sure that you manually record all settings that you need to preserve.
Ensure that the connection to HMC1 or HMC2 that is not being used to access the ASMI is disconnected from the network. Follow the instructions in the system service publications to configure the network interfaces after the reset.
This ends the procedure.

Do not replace the battery! Instead, clear the NVRAM by removing
the battery for five minutes and then reinstalling it.
