Select
3 Restart SP
to restart the system
management processor.
Using Remote Video Mode to Monitor and
Access POST:
You can use a terminal program to
remotely monitor all textual output generated during POST.
All POST data will be displayed in the terminal program
window as the remote system completes POST.
While
you are monitoring POST on the remote system, all local
keystrokes are relayed automatically to the remote system,
enabling you to use POST utilities (such as system
configuration, RAID mini-configuration program, or
diagnostic programs) that can be accessed during POST.
To use Remote Video Mode to monitor and access POST
on the server:
1.
Use a terminal program to establish a connection with
the system management processor modem.
2.
Log in to the system management processor.
When you have established a connection with the
system management processor, you will be prompted
for a username and password.
You must provide a
username and password combination that has been
previously configured for use with the system
management processor.
You can use one of two
username and password combinations:
±
The default username (USERID) and password
(PASSW0RD)
Note
The default username and password is case
sensitive.
You must use all caps, and the
“0” in PASSW0RD, is the numeral zero.
±
A username and password that you define using
the Advanced System Management service and
Netfinity Manager
Important
If you update the system management processor
microcode, the default username (USERID) and
password (PASSW0RD) are reset.
If applicable,
notify the system administrator.
When you have logged into the system management
processor, the following main menu appears:
