Figure 16. Attaching the HMC to the managed system
2. To learn how to connect an HMC to a private network so that it can manage more than one managed
system, see HMC network connections (http://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/POWER8/
p8hai/netconhmc.htm).
Notes:
v You can also have multiple systems that are attached to a switch that is then connected to the
HMC. For instructions, see HMC network connections (http://www.ibm.com/support/
knowledgecenter/POWER8/p8hai/netconhmc.htm).
v If you are using a switch, ensure that the speed in the switch is set to auto/auto. If the server is
directly attached to the HMC, ensure the Ethernet adapter speed on the HMC is set to auto/auto.
For information about how to set media speeds, see Setting the media speed (http://
www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/POWER8/p8hai/lanmediaspeed.htm).
3. If you are connecting a second HMC to your managed server, connect to the Ethernet port that is
labeled HMC2 on the managed server.
4. Continue with "Cabling the server and connecting expansion units" on page 19.
Cabling the server and accessing the console by using IBM i Access Client Solutions:
IBM i Access Client Solutions provides support for connecting to the console of a new system by using a
LAN connection. It also provides support for connecting to the console of systems that have been
previously configured for a LAN or Hardware Management Console (HMC).
With every IBM i version 7.2, you receive a CD containing IBM i Access Client Solutions. For instructions,
see the Establishing a Console Connection to IBM i topic in the Getting Started document that is
provided with IBM i Access Client Solutions CD.
