Configuring the Service Processor for remote management
Deploying AltaVault
CLI > enable
CLI # configure terminal
CLI (config) # sp password set
3.
Use the new password when logging in to the Service Processor.
Note:
After the AltaVault appliance is switched over to FIPS mode, the service processor password cannot be set anymore because
of FIPS compliance restrictions. Set the service processor password prior to switching to FIPS mode. If the
sp password set
command is not working, check to see whether the AltaVault appliance is in FIPS mode.
Configuring the Service Processor for remote management
The Service Processor is responsible for monitoring sensors, managing the physical environment of the system,
capturing events, logs and forensics, and sending notifications and alerts. It also provides remote management features
for administrators.
Access to the SP for remote management is accomplished by connecting through the serial console port or via SSH to
the IP address of the Service Processor, after the SP is configured with an IP address and password.
Before you begin
Ensure that you have serial console access to the AltaVault appliance. For more information, refer to
the controller to a computer” on page 28
Set the SP password as described in
“Setting the Service Processor password” on page 34
.
Provide an IP address for the SP (if not using DHCP) that is on the same subnet as the primary interface. The SSH
connection to SP is established via the cabling to the Management Port (wrench port) on the AltaVault, and
therefore the IP address assigned to the SP should be in the same subnet as the Management port or be routable to
the Management port on the AltaVault.
