Connecting to ILOM
In rare cases, faults associated with uncorrectable CPU errors are not diagnosable or displayed
in the controller. These faults will be preserved by and observable on the ILOM. Connect to the
server ILOM (Service Processor) on the server platform to diagnose hardware faults that do not
appear in the BUI.
In a cluster environment, an ILOM connection should be made to each controller.
The server ILOM provides options for (i) network and (ii) serial port connectivity. Network
connection is the preferred choice, as the ILOM serial port does not always allow adequate
means of platform data collection.
WARNING
: Failure to configure ILOM connectivity may lead to longer than necessary hardware
fault diagnosis and resolution times.

Powering On the Appliance
You can access the system by connecting an administrative client to the serial management port
on the controller. Alternatively, if there is a Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP)
server on the network, you can access the system by connecting the network management port
to your network.
Note that if you are installing a cluster, configure only one controller initially. The software
propagates the configuration to the peer controller during cluster initialization. After the cluster
is initialized, you can administer the system from either storage controller. However, do not
attempt initial configuration on both controllers independently. Refer to the Cluster
documentation in the System Administration Guide located on
