1.4.7 Service Processor (SP)

The basic processing device of the Express server has the interfaces to provide users with an

advanced system control and the RAS function. These functions can be used with the

service processor (SP hereafter) in iSP.

1.4.7.1 SP console

1.4.7.1.1 Type of console connection

iSP supports two types of console connections: the Local Console connected through a

serial connector and the Control PC Console connected through a LAN connector.

These two types of consoles work exactly in the same manner. However, to use the LAN

console, you can initialize the operation only on the Local Console.

For details about the serial setting and the LAN setting, please refer to the reference manual

attached to the SG command.

You need to log in to iSP to use the console.

After you log in to iSP, the first menu is displayed. From the first menu, you shift to “virtual

SOP”, “OS console” or “SP command console”.

• On the virtual SOP, the system operation status for each partition is displayed regularly

updated.

• On the OS console, the serial I/O, which is visible on the console, is re-directed.

• On the SP command console, you may monitor iSP output message necessary for the

system operation and the maintenance, or input a command into iSP. On the SP command

console, you may only operate commands necessary for the system operation.

You can simultaneously connect only one connection for each partition on the OS console,

up to nine connections for the entire system on the virtual SOP system, and only one

connection for the entire system on the SP command console.
