Use the following commands in CLI mode: - identify Control the system-locator LED on the front of the server. - power Turn the server on and off remotely. - sel Perform operations with the System Event/Error log. - sysinfo Display general system information that is related to the server and the baseboard management controller. v Serial over LAN Use the Serial over LAN capability to remotely perform control and management functions over a Serial over LAN (SOL) network. You can also use SOL to remotely view and change the server BIOS settings. At a command prompt, type telenet localhost 623 to access the SOL network. Type help at the smbridge> prompt for more information. Use the following commands in an SOL session: - connect Connect to the LAN. Type connect -ip ip_address -u username -p password. - identify Control the system-locator LED on the front of the server. - power Turn the server on and off remotely. - reboot Force the server to restart. - sel get Display the System Event/Error log. - sol Configure the SOL function. - sysinfo Display system information that is related to the server and the globally unique identifier (GUID). Using the SCSISelect Utility program for Adaptec HostRAID configuration Use the SCSISelect Utility program to add RAID level-0, level-1, and level-10 functionality with the option of a hot-spare drive to the SCSI controller with integrated RAID. Installing a ServeRAID-7k enables the SCSI controller to provide additional RAID levels. This utility is part of the BIOS code in the server. The SCSI RAID feature comes disabled by default. You must enable it and install the device drivers before you can use it. SCSI RAID configuration utilities, device drivers, and information are available on the ServeRAID-7e (Adaptec HostRAID) Support CD. If this CD did not come with your server, you can download it from http://www.ibm.com/support/. 44 IBM xSeries 346 Type 8840: Installation Guide
