Note:
If you are using a serial connection to the ASMI terminal, you must use a conversion cable. This
cable (part number 46K5108) is used to convert the ASCII terminal 9-pin Dshell connector to an RJ45
serial port connector on the system. For information about the locations of the connectors on the system,
see Part locations and location codes (http://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/POWER8/p8ecs/
p8ecs_locations.htm).
To cable an ASCII terminal to the server, complete the following steps:
1.
Using a serial cable that is equipped with a null modem, connect the ASCII terminal to the serial port
on the rear of the server.
2.
Ensure that your ASCII terminal is set to the following general attributes.
These attributes are the default settings for the diagnostic programs. Be sure that your terminal is set
according to these attributes before proceeding to the next step.

Description
Line speed
19,200
19,200
19,200
Uses the 19,200 (bits per second) line
speed to communicate with the system
unit.
Word length (bits)
8
8
8
Selects 8 bits as a data word length
(byte).
Parity
No
No
No
Does not add a parity bit and is used
together with the word length attribute
to form the 8–bit data word (byte).
Stop bit
1
1
1
Places a bit after a data word (byte).
3.
Press a key on the ASCII terminal to allow the service processor to confirm the presence of the ASCII
terminal.
4.
When the login display appears for the ASMI, enter
admin
for the user ID and password.
5.
Change the default password when you are prompted.
6.
Press Enter until the server information appears. You have completed the setup for an ASCII terminal,
and have started the ASMI.
7.
Continue with “Completing the server setup without using an HMC” on page 44.
Cabling the server to the HMC:
The Hardware Management Console (HMC) controls managed systems, including the management of
logical partitions, the creation of a virtual environment, and the use of capacity on demand. Using service
applications, the HMC can also communicate with managed systems to detect, consolidate, and forward
information to IBM service for analysis.
If you have not installed and configured your HMC, do so now. For instructions, see Installation and
configuration scenarios (http://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/POWER8/p8hai/
basichmcinstallationandconfigurationtaskflow.htm).
To manage POWER8 processor-based servers, the HMC must be at version 8 release 8.4.0 or later. To
view the HMC version and release, complete the following steps:
1.
In the navigation area, click Updates.
2.
In the work area, view and record the information that appears in the HMC Code Level section,
including the HMC version, release, Service Pack, build level, and base versions.
To cable the server to the HMC, complete the following steps:
