Example 5-19 HP-UX Applications that care about the terminal type (install, SAM, vi, and so on) running on HP-UX use three methods to determine the terminal type: 1. The application takes the terminal information from the OS. This value is set in the CA command and takes effect for all MP ports.
2. In the DC command choose “Reset Security Configuration”. 3. Forgotten passwords can be reset by pressing the reset button on the back panel of your HP Server. See Figure 2-7 on page 22. After the MP reboots, the local console terminal displays a message for five seconds. Responding to this message in time will allow a local user to reset the passwords.
Utilities Management Processor Command Interface MP Firmware Update FW: Activates MP firmware upgrade mode This command is available from either the LAN or local serial port. This command activates firmware upgrade mode, which loads new firmware through the MP LAN by FTP (which must be operational). An MP Reset is generated after the upgrade is complete.
Utilities Management Processor Command Interface • Link State The MP Host Name set in this command is displayed at the MP command interface prompt. Typically the DNS name for the LAN IP is entered. This field can be programmed to any useful name or phrase. For clarity, it is useful to enter MP-on-SYSTEM as the MP Host name, so both names show up in the prompt (limit 19 characters, no spaces allowed.) The web access port number is also set by this command.
The MP regularly checks the activity of the session, closes the connection with the system, and, if the timeout period has elapsed, returns the port to mirroring. The timeout period is set with the IT command. On HP-UX, the SE command works on the local and remote ports.
Utilities Management Processor Command Interface • Current boot log—All events between “start of boot” and “boot complete” • Previous boot log—The events from the previous boot Reading the system event log turns off the attention LED. Accessing this log is the only way to turn off the attention LED when it is flashing and alerts have not been acknowledged at the alert display level.
