Chapter 2. Configuring your server
33
Baud Rate
The default is 57600. Make sure that the baud rate matches the baud
rate of the device you are connecting to the serial port on the Remote
Supervisor Adapter.
Dedicated to ASM
The default is Disabled. If you are using point-to-point protocol (PPP), set
this field to Enabled. If the value in this field is Enabled when the server is
restarted, the serial port remains dedicated to system management and
is not returned to the operating system.
You can dedicate the integrated serial port on the Remote Supervisor
Adapter to system management or share it with the operating system. If
the serial port is dedicated to system management, it serves only the
Remote Supervisor Adapter and is always available for dial-in or dial-out
alerting purposes. You cannot view the port using the operating system
or any application.
Note: To use this serial port, you must first install the ASM device drivers
as described in “Installing Advanced System Management device
drivers:” on page 35.
If the serial port is shared with the operating system, it is dedicated to the
Remote Supervisor Adapter only while the server is turned off or during
POST. The port is returned to the operating system after POST
completes. You can view the port using the operating system or any
application. The Remote Supervisor Adapter takes over the port from the
operating system only when information about a critical event is received.
The Remote Supervisor Adapter dials out and transmits an alert and
keeps the port dedicated until the server is restarted. The port is no
longer available to the operating system or applications.
Parity
The default is None.
Stop Bits
The default is 1.
Note: The data bits value is preset to 8 and cannot be changed.
For detailed information about the serial port and modem settings, see the
Remote Supervisor Adapter User’s Guide on the IBM Documentation CD.
