Remote power
The command rpower boots and resets hardware, powers hardware on and off,
and queries node power state. The syntax is:
rpower [-a] [-h] [-n host[,host...]] [-N Node_group[,Node_group...]]
Remote console
The Remote console function is provided using the serial ports of the x335 servers
and terminal servers. This provides remote access to nodes before the operating
system is installed or when network access to the servers is not available or failed.
The terminal servers are required by the Install function in CSM and must be
included to enable the Remote console function.
Each rack in the configuration includes one or two terminal servers to connect each
node in the rack via a DB9 to RH45 serial cable. The terminal servers are LAN
connected to the Management VLAN.
The Remote console function is accessed via the rconsole command. This
command opens a remote console for each node specified with the command. The
syntax is:
rconsole [-a] [-h] [-n host[,host...]] [-N Node_group[,Node_group...]
