Appendix D. Service Processor Setup and Test
Attention:
This procedure applies to modems attached to the serial ports (S1 and S2)
on the primary I/O book (location U1.18-P1-H2). It does not affect the operation of the
modem attached to the Hardware Management Console for pSeries (HMC).
The call-out function is normally handled by the Service Focal Point running on the
HMC.
For your convenience, an example of a basic service processor setup checklist is
included here. Your setup may include more or fewer of the available features, so you
can adjust this checklist for your own application.
Note: The call-out and surveillance options are disabled in partitioned systems.
Service Processor Setup Checklist
1. Shut down the managed system, and wait for the
OK
in the physical operator panel.
2. Open a virtual terminal on the HMC.
3. Bring up the service processor menus.
4. Set the system name.
5. Enable Surveillance.
6. Configure call-in/call-out.
7. Attach modems if necessary. If modem attachment is not necessary, proceed to
step 8. To attach a modem do the following:
v
Exit the service processor menus.
v
Disable 350V dc outputs from the BPA by placing the UEPO switch in the
off
position.
Attention:
Power is still present within the BPA with the UEPO
off.
v
Place the UEPO switch in the
on position.
v
Proceed to step 8.
8. Test both of the following:
v
Call-In, page “Testing Call-In” on page 140
v
Call-Out, page “Testing Call-Out” on page 141
9. Use the “Save or Restore Hardware Management Policies,” in the “Introduction to
Tasks and Service Aids” section of the
RS/6000 and
Eserver
Diagnostic
Information for Multiple Bus Systems to back up the service processor settings.
Note: This is strongly recommended to protect the usefulness of the service
processor and the availability of the server.
Your service processor is now ready for use.
