service processor console
The console on a service processor whose dedicated Ethernet port is
connected to one of the OnBoard’s private Ethernet ports. Sometimes referred
to as NCI (for native command interface). [OnBoard only]
service processor manager
An OOBI component that provides to users and groups secure, controlled
access to basic features required for out-of-band management of servers that
have embedded management controllers (also called
BMC s or service
processors ). Also provides access to the console of servers and other devices
without service processors but that have Ethernet ports that allow console
access. Provides a single point of access through a single Ethernet address
(see
IP address consolidation ) to services that are provided by service
processors from several different vendors and to the console of certain servers
and other devices. Its administrators are able to use a single interface to
manage multiple servers without having to learn multiple management
interfaces. The AlterPath OnBoard is the Cyclades service processor manager.
shell
A command interpreter on UNIX-based operating systems (like the Linux
operating system that controls most Cyclades products). A shell typically is
accessed in a terminal window where the shell presents a prompt. For
example:
[admin@OnSite admin]#
is the prompt that appears when a
user logs into an OnSite as admin and is in the
/home/admin
directory.
Users tell the operating system to perform actions by typing commands in the
shell, which interprets the commands and performs the specified actions. See
also
command line interface . The AlterPath OnBoard has two user shells:
onbdshell
and
rmenush
.
