of the system. For systems running a single partition, one MP/SCSI board is required. A second
MP/SCSI board is required for a dual-partition configuration, or if you want to enable primary
or secondary MP failover for the server.
Connections to the MP/SCSI board include the following:
•
DB9 connector for Local Console
• 10/100 Base-T LAN RJ45 connector (for LAN and Web Console access)
This LAN uses standby power and is active when AC is present and the front panel power
switch is off.
• Internal LVD Ultra 320 SCSI channel for connections to internal mass storage
• Internal SE Ultra SCSI channel for connection to an internal removable media device.
LAN/SCSI Connections
The LAN/SCSI board is a PCI form factor card that provides the basic external I/O connectivity
for the system.
Connections to the LAN/SCSI board include the following:
•
PCI-X to PCI-X bridge for multi-device compatibility
• Two LVD Ultra 320 SCSI channel controllers: one for internal connection to one of the HDD
devices, and the other is available for connection to an external device
• Two 10/100/1000 Base-T LAN RJ45 connectors
The primary LAN interface is located on the LAN/SCSI board installed in the right-most slot
when viewing the system from the back.
Management Processor Access
NOTE:
The primary MP/SCSI board is located in the lower MP/SCSI board slot.
Setting Up the Customer Engineer Tool (PC)
The CE Tool is usually a laptop. It allows communication with the Management Processor (MP)
in the server. The MP monitors the activity of either a one-partition or a multiple-partition
configuration.
During installation, communicating with the MP enables such tasks as:
• Verifying that the components are present and installed correctly
• Setting the MP LAN configurations
• Shutting down cell board power
Establish communication with the MP by connecting the CE Tool to the local RS-232 port on the
MP core I/O card.
Setting CE Tool Parameters
After powering on the CE Tool, ensure the communications settings are as follows:
•
8 data bits/ no parity
• 9600 baud
• na (Receive)
• na (Transmit)
If the CE Tool is a laptop using Reflection 1, ensure communications settings are in place, using
the following procedure:
1. From the Reflection 1 Main screen, pull down the Connection menu and select Connection
Setup.
2. Select Serial Port.
