Connecting to the SC from an admin workstation:
Use a serial port connection:
# tip hardwire
Use telnet (assumes SC net has been configured with setupnetwork):
# telnet SC-hostname or IP address
Use SSH:
admin-ws% ssh 6800-sc1
Enter Password: As setup Connected. HIT RETURN Note – At 5.18.0, you will be offered the option of connecting with a secure shell (ssh) only if you have an SC V2 in the IB/SSC. In this case only SSH will work not telnet
How to send a break if connected to the SC:
See Document 1017808.1 for details.

Navigating between shells
Click image to see knowledge article on topic. |
|
POST levels (Change using diag-level?)
init - (Default level) Only initialization code is
run, no testing.
quick - Few tests and few patters.
min - Quick sanity check.
max - All components tested with all tests and
patterns, except for memory & Ecache.
mem1 - More exhaustive DRAM and SRAM tests.
mem2 - mem1 with the addition of a DRAM.
How to Identify the Physical DIMM Size:
- Physical Size is equal to "DIMM Size" in prtdiag.
- prtfru_-x.out data in Explorer identifies the
DIMM size.
- sc>showboards -p memory identifies the DIMM size.
How to Identify the CPU Speed:
- sc>showboards -v -p cpu shows the CPU speed.
- prtdiag identifies the CPU speed..
- prtfru_-x.out data in Explorer identifies CPU
speed and the board type.
- showlogs AD Event messaging does NOT identify
the correct FRU pn for a SB.
