8.5 HMC Guided Setup Wizard

The Guided Setup Wizard is a tool on the HMC designed to make the setup of
the HMC quick and easy. The Guided Setup Wizard can be run only on the HMC
itself, it cannot be run using the Web-based System Management Remote
Client.; you can choose a fast path through the wizard to quickly create the
recommended HMC environment, or you can choose to fully explore the
available settings that the wizard guides you through. You can also perform the
configuration steps without the aid of the wizard.
Both the desktop and rack mounted HMC models come with the pre-installed
operating system, HMC code, browser, and IBM Sserver Hardware Information
Center pre-loaded. Therefore, the HMC can be unpacked and powered up
immediately after the networking components, power, and other basic
connections are made.
Note: Refer to the setup instructions that came with the HMC. Before
connecting the power to the HMC, it is essential to check the setting for
line-voltage. On the back of the system, near the power cord receptacle, there
is a dual-range switch (110/240v) that must be at the correct setting.
The Guided Setup wizard guides you through the main tasks needed to configure
the HMC in very logical steps. To access the Setup Wizard and Information
Center, power on the HMC.
Note: When installing a new Sserver p5 system, do not power on the system
before connecting it to an HMC. The service processor on a Sserver p5
system is a DHCP client and will search for a DHCP server (the HMC) to
obtain its IP address. If no DHCP server can be found, the service processor
will assign a default IP address and simple communication with the HMC will
be prevented. If this occurs you will have to manually change the IP setting of
the service processor.
