Note – To use the RCI function, peripheral devices with the RCI connector and the
server on which the RCI function is supported are required. For the information
whether the RCI function is supported on your server, see the SPARC Enterprise
M3000/M4000/M5000/M8000/M9000 Servers Product Notes.
USB Port
The USB port (type A) is used to connect a USB device. The port is compatible with
USB 1.1. The port can be used by a system administrator or an FE to save and restore
the hardware information, or to collect log data. For the USB handling, see
Section 2.3, “Save and Restore XSCF Configuration Information” on page 2-195 and
Section 8.2.2, “Method of Collecting the Log Information” on page 8-27.
READY LED
The READY LED lights up in green. When the power supply is turned on, the
READY LED blinks. This blinking LED state indicates that the XSCF has been started
and is being initialized. When XSCF initialization is completed, the LED stays lit.
CHECK LED
The CHECK LED lights up in orange. While the XSCF is operating normally, the
LED remains off. If an abnormality occurs in the XSCF Unit, the CHECK LED turns
on. The CHECK LED can set to blink using an XSCF Shell command. This can be
used to identify the XSCF Unit even if there is no failure. For details on the
LED-related commands of the XSCF Shell, see Chapter 5 and the XSCF Reference
Manual.
Note – The Check LED turns on immediately after the server input power is turned
on.
Serial Port
The serial port (RS-232C port) uses an RJ-45 connector. The serial port is used with
the XSCF Shell to configure server settings and display the server status. An RS-232C
serial cross cable is used in the serial port. The connection between the serial port
and a PC requires an RJ-45 / RS-232C conversion cable or a conversion connector.
For details on serial port connections, see Chapter 3 and the Installation Guide for
your server.
