Correcting an Incomplete state for a managed system

To correct an Incomplete state, perform the following steps:

1. In the HMC's contents area, select the managed system.
2. From the menu, click Selected > Rebuild Managed System.
3. Choose from the following options:
   • If the state remains in Incomplete, rebuild the managed system several more times.
   • If the state goes to Recovery, see Correcting a Recovery state for a managed system.
   • If the state does not remain in Incomplete or go to Recovery, continue with the next step.
4. Reset the connection from the HMC. See Resetting the managed system connection from the HMC. If it still fails, continue with the next step.
5. This step might take several minutes to complete. Restart the HMC. Then choose from the following options:
   • If the state goes to Recovery, see Correcting a Recovery state for a managed system.
   • If the state remains Incomplete, perform the following steps:
     1. Verify that there is a redundant HMC.
     2. Verify that no one is entering commands from the alternate HMC.
     3. Repeat step 1 through 5. If it still fails, continue with the next step.
6. If the problem persists, contact your next level of support or your hardware service provider.
