Chapter 7. Service Processor Menus
The service processor menus make it possible for you to configure service processor
options, as well as enable and disable functions.
Service processor menus are available using an ASCII terminal while the system is
powering on or when the service processor has detected a server problem (such as a
surveillance failure).
The following table contains a summary of the service processor functions and the
