Service Processor Menus
The Service Processor menus are divided into two groups:
General user menus - the user must know the general access password.
Privileged user menus - the user must know the privileged access password.
The following section describes these two groups of menus, how to access them,
and the functions associated with each option.
When the server is powered down, the Service Processor menus may be accessed
locally or remotely.
Menu Inactivity
To prevent loss of control in unstable power environments, the Service Processor
leaves the menu mode after 5 minutes of inactivity. Menus may be resumed by
pressing any key on the terminal, local or remote.
How to access Service Processor menus locally
Service Processor menus may be accessed locally by connecting an ASCII terminal
to either serial port. Because the presence of the ASCII terminal cannot be con-
firmed by the Service Processor, you must press a key on the ASCII terminal to
confirm its presence. Next the Service Processor prompts you for a password (if
set), and when verified, displays the Service Processor menus.
How to access Service Processor menus remotely
Service Processor menus may be accessed remotely by connecting a modem to
serial port 1 or serial port 2.
Power off the server, unplug the power cord, and press the power button to drain
capacitance while power is disconnected.
Connect the modem to the appropriate serial port and turn the modem on.
Plug in the server.
Note: If your modem has not been configured, go to "Call-in/Call-out Setup Menu"
on page C-22.
With a terminal or terminal emulator, call the server's modem. The Service
Processor prompts you for a password (if set), and when verified, displays the
Service Processor menus.
