Cabling
your
server
Learn
how
to
cable
your
server
with
a
console
or
interface
that
is
available
for
your
server.
This
might
include
the
Advanced
System
Management
Interface
(ASMI),
Hardware
Management
Console
(HMC),
or
Integrated
Virtualization
Manager.
To
learn
more
about
the
cabling
options
that
are
available
for
your
server,
see
the
following
console
and
interface
descriptions.
Advanced
System
Management
Interface
The
Advanced
System
Management
Interface
(ASMI)
is
the
interface
to
the
service
processor
that
allows
you
to
perform
general
and
administrator-level
service
tasks,
such
as
reading
service
processor
error
logs,
reading
vital
product
data,
setting
up
the
service
processor,
and
controlling
the
system
power.
The
ASMI
might
also
be
referred
to
as
the
service
processor
menus.
Set
up
access
to
the
ASMI
if
you
plan
to
manage
the
AIX
®
or
Linux
®
operating
systems
without
an
HMC.
The
ASMI
can
also
be
used
to
setup
your
Virtual
I/O
Server
(VIOS).
Hardware
Management
Console
The
Hardware
Management
Console
(HMC)
is
a
dedicated
workstation
that
runs
integrated
system
management
software.
The
HMC
manages
hardware
tasks
and
configures
logical
partitions
on
managed
systems.
It
also
acts
as
a
focal
point
for
hardware
detection
and
reporting.
