AlphaServer ES47/ES80/GS1280 Server Management CLI Reference
3.14 connect
Establishes a system COM1 session to a partition. This command starts a virtual terminal session
to the primary CPU in the partition so that the user can access the SRM console or operating
system. Enter the escape sequence <ESC><ESC>MBM to return to the server management CLI.
–hp
and
–sp
are not needed if the system has only one subpartition (excluding Free_Pool).
-sp
is not needed if there is only one subpartition in a given hard partition.
Each session has the MBM's or PBM’s IP address and a unique port number.
The SM environment variable "srm auto_connect" will control the auto connect feature. If it is set
to be "on", "connect" is issued automatically upon resetting or powering on a non-partitioned
system. Also, the current implementation of the connect command only handles communicating
with the SRM on CPU0.

[-hp <hard_partition> [-sp <sub_partition>]]
Arguments
-hp <hard_partition>

-sp <sub_partition>
Subpartition name.
Options
None
