Setting Up the Customer Engineer Tool (PC)
The Customer Engineer (CE) Tool is usually a laptop. It allows communication with the Management
Processor (MP) in the HP Integrity rx7620 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 MP 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
•
na (Receive)
•
na (Transmit)
