Appendix D. Making a server connection through the System
Management Module (IMM)
This appendix provides an alternative method for establishing a connection to a
server during RAS package configuration, using the remote supervisor adapter
(RSA) port.
Before you begin
Note:
Currently, for the DD4 xSeries server, remote control access to the server via
the IMM port requires a file not available in the current provided IBM supported
browsers. Some third party browsers have this file resident, that can enable this
function (example: Google Chrome), and it can be used to perform this function if
required.
About this task
By default, the RSA ports on Servers A and B in a cluster have the same default IP
address. This will cause a conflict when the servers attempt to communicate with
the TSSC network switch via the RSA ports, and will result in abnormal system
behavior. To avoid the conflict, you must change the IP address of the RSA on
Server B
to make the RSA's IP address unique. Do not change the IP address of
the RSA on Server A. The default IP address of an RSA FRU replacement is
192.168.70.125.
Depending upon the equipment you have available, you will perform the
procedures that follow using a USB keyboard and graphics-capable monitor (the
preferred method), or the TSSC (code-level 5.9 or higher) or your IBM service
laptop.
Tip: If you connect to the RSA using your service laptop, you may need an
extension cord to reach a standard power outlet, or a 240v to 110v step-down
voltage converter to allow the laptop to run on a PDU in the server frame.
Note: Do not change the RSA IP address on a stand-alone server.
Procedure
v If you have a USB keyboard and graphics-capable monitor, go to “Using a USB
keyboard and monitor to alter the IP address of the RSA on Server B in a
cluster.”
v
If you have to use the TSSC or your service laptop, go to “Using the TSSC or a
service laptop” on page 156

About this task
This procedure describes making a direct connection to the server's RSA using a
USB keyboard and graphics-capable monitor.
