Chapter 5. Using System Management Services
Use the system management services menus to view information about your system , and to perform
tasks such as setting a password, changing the boot list, and setting the network parameters.
Note: On some of the system management services (or service processor) screens, you will see the term
LPAR whidh is equivalent to the term logical partition . This system does not support logical
partitions.
To start the system management services, do the following:
1. For a partitioned system, use the Hardware Management Console for pSeries (HMC) to restart the
partition.
For a full system partition, restart the system.
2. For a partitioned system, watch the virtual terminal window on the HMC.
For a full system partition, watch the firmware console.
3. Look for the POST indicators memory , keyboard , network , scsi , speaker , which appear across the
bottom of the screen.
Press the numeric 1 key after the word keyboard appears, and before the word speaker appears.
After the system management services starts, the following screen displays:
Main Menu
1 Select Language
2 Change Password Options NOT available in LPAR mode
3 View Error Log
