Chapter 7. Using the Service Processor
The service processor menus make it possible for you to configure service processor
options, as well as enable and disable functions.
Service processor menus are available using an ASCII terminal when OK is displayed on
the operator panel or when the service processor has detected a server problem (such
as a surveillance failure).
For a summary of the service processor functions and the methods used to invoke
them, see the following table.
