Verify That Installation Is Complete By Using The Hmc Interface - IBM pseries 690 Installation Manual

Verify that Installation is Complete by Using the HMC Interface

The HMC provides a predefined user ID called hscroot. The hscroot password is abc123. This hscroot
user ID is a member of the System Administrator rolehscroot. When the console is powered on for the first
time, use this user ID to log in. After you are logged in, you can create additional users.
Note: If the customer is installing a second pSeries 690, the HMC may have been preinstalled, and the
hscroot password has probably been changed. If the HMC was already present from a previous
installation, ask the customer for a login ID. The customer may have already set up a special login
for a service representative; if so, use this login ID. You might request that a special user ID be
created for the service representative role to perform service functions.
After you power on your HMC, the HMC login window displays, and prompts you to enter your user ID and
password.
After the installation is complete, the pSeries 690 displays on the HMC interface. It may take a few
minutes for a new system to display in the user interface after the cable is connected. When you log in to
the HMC, the HMC management window opens, and the management environment is already selected.
Select Partition Management to see the list of managed systems. This window is divided into the
Navigation area and the Contents area.
The navigation panel displays a hierarchy of icons that represent collections of systems, individual
systems, managed resources, and tasks. Each Navigation area icon identifies an application. At the
highest point, or root of the tree, is the Management Environment. The Management Environment contains
one or more host system applications that is managed by the console. Each system application contains
its own set of applications that contain managed objects, tasks, and actions for a related set of system
entities or resources.
The contents area panel displays results based on the item you select in the Navigation area. When you
click on an application in the Navigation area, the Contents area displays the tasks you can perform using
that application.
Each HMC contains the following set of application icons:
v System Manager Security
v Server Management
v System Configuration
v Users
v Frame
v HMC
v Inventory Scout Services
v Service Agent
v Service Focal Point
v Problem Determination
If the pSeries 690 is not displayed on the HMC interface, refer to the Eserver pSeries 690 Service Guide
for additional information.
Verify that the installation is complete for each pSeries 690 that you have connected to the HMC using the
serial port, the 8-port async adapter, or the 128-port async adapter. When you have finished the
verification procedure, go to Chapter 3, "Verifying the Hardware Operation," on page 29.
