The serial port diagnostic menu is accessed during startup. This menu lets you reset all admin passwords, download configuration parameters, access the Enclosure Services Test Tool, or continue with the boot operation. For more information, see Section C.1. The management port diagnostic menu is used if the xStack Storage Array is operational, but the management console is not available. This menu lets you reset the xStack Storage Array to factory defaults, reboot or shut down the xStack Storage Array, and change the out-ofband port configuration. To access this menu, you must know the login username and password. For more information, see Section C.2. C.1 Accessing the Serial Port Diagnostic Menu This method requires that you have physical access to the xStack Storage Array itself. To access the xStack Storage Array serial port diagnostic menu, use the following procedure: 1. Shut down the xStack Storage Array. 2. Connect a PC to the xStack Storage Array diagnostic serial port using the provided female DB9 to female DB9 cable From the connected PC, launch a terminal-emulation program configured as follows: - Terminal type: VT-100 - Bits per second: 9600 bps - Data bits: 8 - Parity: None - Stop bits: 1 - Flow control: none 3.
