Setting Up the CE Tool (PC)

Setting Up the CE Tool (PC)
The CE Tool is usually a laptop. It allows communication with the management processor (MP) in the server.
The MP monitors the activity of either a one-partition or a multiple-partition configuration.
During installation, communicating with the MP enables such tasks as:
• Verifying that the components are present and installed correctly
• Setting LAN IP addresses
• Shutting down cell board power
Communication with the MP is established by connecting the CE Tool to the local RS-232 port on the core I/O
card.

Setting CE Tool Parameters

After powering on the CE Tool, ensure the communications settings are as follows:
• 8/none (parity)
• 9600 baud
• None (Receive)
• None (Transmit)
