0509-033 cannot run a 64bit program until 64bit env is loaded

Unable to access the server, ssh was disabled,, the
telnet port was automatically opened, error message is  cannot load program /usr/bin/w64


having various problems with the system.
When he runs uptime, he gets the following:
# uptime
0509-036 cannot load /usr/bin/w64 because of following error
0509-033 cannot run a 64bit program until 64bit env is loaded



# bootinfo -K --> 64
# bootinfo -y --> 64
# ls -l /unix --> /usr/lib/boot/unix_64
# ls -l /usr/lib/boot/unix --> /usr/lib/boot/unix_64

Checked for load64bit entry in inittab:
load64bit:2:wait:/etc/methods/cfg64 >/dev/console 2>&1 # Enable 64-bit execs

Everything checked out.
we suspected a kernel issue and had already checked the links above and ran bosboot.


After rebooting, the kernel errors no longer show up.
The 'uptime' command ran clean. He can ssh into the system fine but the console is not working.
The console is the Java GUI console from HMC.

From ssh session, we ran these commands:
# lscons
/dev/null

# lsdev -Cc tty
vty0 available
vty1 defined
vty2 defined

# smitty console
-> assign the console to /dev/vty0

Rebooted after the console change. Things seem to be working ok again.
