command displays the current state of the DCD, CTS, DSR, and RI status signals and the last
state of the DTR and RTS control signals set by the firmware.
PC — Power Control. Turns system power on and off. For proper system shut down, shutdown
the OS before issuing this command or use the graceful shutdown option. Use this command to
switch the system power on or off. You can have the action take place immediately or after a
specified delay.
PG — Paging parameter setup. Configures pagers. Use this command to configure the pagers
and set triggering events. A string description of the triggering event is sent with the page.
PS — Power status. Displays the status of the power management module. This command
displays on the console the status of the power management module.
RB — Resets BMC. This command resets the BMC by toggling a GPIO pin.
RS — Resets system through RST signal
IMPORTANT: Under normal operation, shut down the OS before issuing the RS command.
This command causes the system (except the MP) to be reset through the RST signal. Execution
of this command irrecoverably halts all system processing and I/O activity and restarts the
computer system. The effect of this command is similar to cycling the system power. The OS is
not notified, no dump is taken on the way down, and so on.
SA — Sets access options. Configures access for LAN and remote/modem ports. This command
disconnects modem, LAN, and web users if access is disabled.
SE — Logs in to the system on local or remote port.
This command is valid only from the local or remote/modem port. Use this command to leave
the MP command interface and enter a system session. Other mirrored MP users are placed in
console mode. The session user returns to the mirrored MP session on exit. The MP regularly
checks the activity of the session, closes the connection with the system, and, if the timeout period
has elapsed, returns the port to mirroring. Set the timeout period with the IT command. The
modem type, CCITT or Bell, must agree with the remote port settings for the remote session port
and always be Bell mode for the local session port.
If the system and the MP command interface local or remote ports are configured with different
port speeds, the baud rate changes to the rate specified by the OS for the duration of the session.
SL — Displays contents of the system status logs. This command displays the contents of the
event logs that are stored in nonvolatile memory.
• System Event Log (SEL) — Events (filtered by alert level) and errors
• Forward progress — All events
• Current boot log — All events between start of boot and boot complete
• Previous boot log — The events from the previous boot
Reading the system event log turns off the system LED. Accessing this log is the only way to
turn off the system LED when it is flashing and alerts have not been acknowledged at the alert
display level.
Events are encoded data that provide system information to you. Some well-known names for
similar data would be chassis codes or post codes. Events are produced by intelligent hardware
modules, the OS, and system firmware. Use the SL command to view the event log.
Navigate within the logs as follows:
• + — View the next block (forward in time)
• - — View the previous block (backward in time)
• Enter (<CR>) — View the next block in the previously selected direction (forward or backward
in time)
• D — Dump the entire log for capture or analysis
• F — First entry
• L — Last entry
• J — Jump to entry number
