55.0. "Machine check on AlphaStation 400 4/233" by KERNEL::PETTET (Norm Pettet CSC Basingstoke) Wed Mar 05 1997 03:06

This is cross refernced in Alphastation notesfile but as yet no answer. can
anyone else add any value

	Thanks in advance.




This box has recently been upgraded to OpenVms V7.1 and Firmware Update V3.8

We had the following scenario:

Controlled shutdown
Cycled power (power was off for ~5 minutes)
Booted system - crashed and hung during reboot.

Reset machine from front panel
Booted again from >>> was OK this time.

No valid crash dump written to dump file, or anything to error log.

Console log (via LAT port) follows:
