Chapter 5. System Management Services
These programs make it possible for you to view information about your system, run
memory tests, and set the storage device from which the server boots.
If you have a graphical display connected to a display adapter in your system unit,
then you can use the graphical System Management Services. Otherwise, you must
use the text-based version of the System Management Services.
The graphical System Management Services is described in “Graphical System
Management Services” on page 5-2; the text-based System Management Services is
described beginning in “Text-Based System Management Services Programs” on
page 5-11; the ASCII terminal is described beginning in “ASCII Terminal System
Management Services Programs” on page 5-16.
To start the programs:
1. Turn on or shutdown and restart the system.
2. When the first screen appears, press the F1 key to use the graphical System
Management Services. To use the text-based System Management Services,
press the F4 key or number 4 key on an ASCII terminal.
Note: You must press F1 or F4 key after the diskette indicator appears on the
screen, but before the last indicator appears. After you have pressed the
F1 or F4 key, the initialization indicators continue to display, and the
System Management Services screen displays after the last indicator.
Note: It is recommended that you create a Firmware Recovery Diskette using the
Update Firmware selection in the System Management Services Tools
section described in this chapter.
