Note: This is the preferred connection method. If you do not have access to a USB
keyboard and monitor, you must connect to the IMM by using the procedure in
“Using the TSSC or a service notebook.”
Procedure
Perform the following steps to change the IMM IP address.
1. Connect a USB keyboard and graphics-capable monitor to Server B.
2. Log in to the server with the ID: root and the password: admin.
3. On the command line, type reboot and press Enter.
4. When the IBM logo displays, press F1 to enter Setup mode.
5. Select System Settings > Integrated Management Module > Network
Configuration.
6. Locate the current IMM IP address and proceed to define the static IMM IP
address.
7. For the Static IP Address, change the last octet to an address value that is
lower than the default of 254.
For example: 172.31.1.253.
8. For the Netmask, enter: 255.255.255.0.
9. Leave the Gateway field blank.
10. Ensure that use of the static IP address is specified.
11. Select Save the Network Changes and then press Enter.
12. Press Esc.
13. Select Save Settings.
14. Select Exit Setup.
The server reboots and the IMM IP address for Server B is now unique.
15. Return to the procedure that sent you here.
Using the TSSC or a service notebook
This section provides an alternative procedure to connect to the IMM.
Procedure
Perform the following steps to use the TSSC or a service laptop to connect to the
IMM in the ProtecTIER server.
1. If you are using the TSSC, skip ahead to step 10 on page 153. Otherwise,
continue with step 2.
2. Connect an Ethernet cable from the Ethernet port on your notebook to the SYS
MGMT (IMM port) on Server B. See Figure 58 on page 153.
