1.
Locate the graphics card and Universal Serial Bus (USB) ports at the rear of the system. You might
need a connector converter.
2.
Connect the monitor cable to the graphics card.
3.
Connect a keyboard and mouse to the blue USB 3.0 ports.
4.
Power on the console.
5.
Continue with “Routing cables through the cable-management arm and connecting expansion units.”
Routing cables through the cable-management arm and connecting expansion
units
Use this procedure to route cables through the cable-management arm and to connect expansion units.
To route cables through the cable-management arm and to connect expansion units, complete the
following steps:
1.
Route the console cable through the cable management arm.
2.
Connect expansion units that were shipped with the system. Tasks must be performed on the
expansion unit before it can be powered on. For more information, see the expansion unit installation
documentation that was shipped with the system. Complete the tasks associated with connecting a
preinstalled expansion unit or disk drive enclosure, then return to this document to complete your
server setup.
3.
Continue with “Completing the server setup.”
Completing the server setup
Learn about the tasks you must complete to set up your managed system.
One of the tasks you can perform to complete your server setup is to virtualize your server. IBM
®
PowerKVM
™
is an open virtualization solution that is offered for the Power
®
scale-out family of Linux
servers built on POWER8
™
technology.
PowerKVM delivers server virtualization based on open source Kernel-based Virtual Machine (KVM)
Linux technology. PowerKVM virtualization technology enables you to share real compute, memory, and
I/O resources through server virtualization. These virtual resources are used by virtual machines running
on the PowerKVM virtualized server.
PowerKVM-based server virtualization enables optimization and the commitment of resources like CPU
and memory. This helps you achieve superior resource usage, flexibility, and agility, resulting in cost
reduction through economies of scale.
To get started using PowerKVM virtualization technology on your system, see Quick start guide for IBM
PowerKVM (http://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/linuxonibm/liabq/liabqquick.htm). Then
return to this document to continue to complete your server setup.
Completing the server setup without using an HMC:
If you do not have an Hardware Management Console (HMC), use this procedure to complete the server
setup.
To complete the server setup without using a management console, complete the following steps:
1.
To check the firmware level on the managed system and to update the time of day, complete the
following steps:
a.
Access the Advanced System Management Interface (ASMI). For instructions, see Accessing the
ASMI without an HMC (http://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/POWER8/p8hby/
connect_asmi.htm).
