Change Privileged-access Password
Set or change the privileged-access password. It provides the user with the capability
to access all service processor functions. This password is usually used by the
system administrator or root user.
v
Change General-Access Password
Set or change the general-access password. It provides limited access to service
processor menus and is usually available to all users who are allowed to power on
the system.
v
Enable/Disable Console Mirroring
When console mirroring is enabled, the service processor sends information to both
serial ports. This capability, which can be enabled by local or remote users, provides
local users with the capability to monitor remote sessions. Console mirroring can be
enabled for the current session only. For more information, see “Console Mirroring”
on page 52.
v
Start Talk Mode
In a console-mirroring session, it is useful for those who are monitoring the session
to be able to communicate with each other. Selecting this menu item activates the
keyboards and displays for such communications while console mirroring is
established. This is a full duplex link, so message interference is possible. Alternating
messages between users works best.
