1: Operation Procedures
A micro-USB serial connection can be used to communicate directly with the CMC. This
connection is typically used for service purposes or for system controller and system console
access in small systems where an in-rack system console is not used or available.
System Controller Access
Access to the SGI UV 2000 system controller network is accomplished by the following
connection methods:
• A LAN connection to the system management node (running the SGI Management Center
software application). This can also be done using an optional VGA-connected console, see
Figure 1-5.
• A micro-USB serial cable connection to the “Console” port (see Figure 1-6) on the CMC
(see note below). See also “Serial Console Hardware Requirements” on page 9.
Note: Each IRU has two chassis management controller (CMC) slots located in the rear of the
IRU directly below the cooling fans. Only one CMC is supported in each IRU. The CMC slot on
the right is the slot that is populated.
