When the server is powered down, the SP menus may be accessed locally or remotely.
Attention: The service processor functions should only be used when directed by this maintenance
package or the next level of support. Unguided use of the service processor functions can have
unexpected results.
Menu Inactivity
To prevent loss of control in unstable power environments, the SP leaves the menu mode after 5 minutes
of inactivity. Menus may be resumed by pressing any key on the terminal, local or remote.
How to access SP menus locally
SP menus may be accessed locally by connecting a service terminal to either serial port. Because the
presence of the service terminal cannot be confirmed by the SP, you must press a key on the service
terminal to confirm its presence. Next the SP prompts you for a password (if set), and when verified,
displays the SP menus.
How to access SP menus remotely
SP menus may be accessed remotely by connecting a modem to serial port 1 or serial port 2.
v
Power off the server, unplug the power cord, and press the power button to drain capacitance while
power is disconnected.
v
Connect the modem to the appropriate serial port and turn the modem on.
v
Plug in the server.
Note: If your modem has not been configured, go to “CALL-IN/CALL-OUT SETUP MENU” on page 221.
With a terminal or terminal emulator, call the server’s modem. The SP prompts you for a password (if set),
and when verified, displays the SP menus.
