Netfinity 7000 M10 - Accessing the Advanced System Management Adapter II without Netfinity Manager
Applicable to: World-Wide
Source: Hardware Maintenance Manual
Accessing the Advanced System Management Adapter II without Netfinity Manager: If you are unable to use Netfinity Manager to access and manage your Netfinity Advanced System Management PCI Adapter, you can use a terminal program and a modem to connect directly to the Netfinity Advanced System Management PCI Adapter. This modem should be connected to serial port A or management port C to use the remote functions. (Refer to your server User's Handbook for information on serial port A and management port C. For more information on configuring the Netfinity Advanced System Management PCI Adapter modem, see "Modem Settings".)
Also, if the Netfinity Advanced System Management PCI Adapter is attached to and configured to use a TCPIP network (using the Ethernet port), you can use a TELNET session or web browser to connect to the Netfinity Advanced System Management PCI Adapter.
When connected, you will be able to access a variety of monitor, configuration, and error log data. You can also:
- Power the remote system on or off
- Shut down and restart the server
- Initiate remote video mode on the system management subsystem
Remote video mode enables you to remotely monitor all textual output generated during POST. All POST data will be displayed in the terminal program window as the remote system completes POST. While you are monitoring POST on the remote system, all local keystrokes are relayed automatically to the remote system, enabling you to use POST utilities (such as system configuration, redundant array of independent disks [RAID] mini-configuration program, and diagnostic programs) that can be accessed during POST.
