Connecting the CE Tool to the Local RS232 Port on the MP
This connection allows direct communications with the MP. Only one window can be created on the CE
Tool to monitor the MP. When enabled, it provides direct access to the MP and any partition.
Use the following procedure to connect the CE Tool to the Local RS-232 Port on the MP:
1. Connect one end of a null modem cable (9-pin to 9-pin) (Part Number 5182-4794) to the M cable connector
labeled CONSOLE.
2. Connect the other end of the RS-232 cable to the CE Tool.

Standby Power and Logging in to the MP

After connecting the serial device, it is possible to log in to the Management Processor (MP). Housekeeping
power (also known as standby power) is generated as soon as AC power is applied to the server. Because the
MP uses standby power, it is possible to log in to the MP even when the power switch is in the OFF position.
The power switch is a DC power switch that controls +48V DC.
Before powering up the HP Integrity rx7620 Server for the first time:
1. Verify that the AC voltage at the input source is within specifications for each server being installed.
2. If not already done so, power on the serial display device.
The preferred tool is the CE tool running Reflection.
To power up the MP, set up a communications link and log in to the MP:
1. Connect the server to AC power.
