Utilities
Management Processor Command Interface
67
This command switches the console terminal from the MP Main Menu to mirrored command interface mode.
If the current mux authority is administrator and the new login is as an operator, the command mux will be
denied (remains in MP Main Menu mode). If a command is in progress, a message will be displayed warning
the new user of system status.
Console
CO: COnsole—leave command mode and enter console mode
This command switches the console terminal from the MP Main Menu to mirrored/redirected console mode.
All mirrored data is displayed. Type
CTRL+B to return to the MP command interface.
For VT100 and HPTERM, verify that the MP setting in the CA command is correct and all mirrored consoles
are of the same terminal type for proper operation.
Connect to Service Processor
CSP: Connect to remote management processor over the LAN
This command allows the local or remote port user to connect over the MP LAN to another MP on the
network. The user that launches the command is given a private connection to the other MP over the LAN. To
return to the original MP, type
CTRL+] to disconnect the CSP session.
Date
DATE: Displays the current date, as generated in the MP real-time clock.
Default Configuration
DC: Default Configuration—reset all MP parameters to the default configuration
This command sets all MP parameters back to their default values. The user may reset all or a subset of the
following parameters:
• IP configurations
• Modem configuration
• Paging configuration
• Command Interface configuration
• Disable remote access, security configuration
• Session configuration. For example: setting the security configuration to default erases all users and
passwords.
There are three ways to reset passwords in the MP:
1. In the SO command, change individual users.
2. In the DC command choose “Reset Security Configuration”.
3. Forgotten passwords can be reset by pressing the MP reset button on the back panel of your HP Server.
After the MP reboots, the local console terminal displays a message for five seconds. Responding to this
message in time will allow a local user to reset the passwords.
NOTE All user information (logins, passwords, and so on) is erased in methods 2 and 3.
