Step 3. Select the partition whose console (and BCH interface) you wish to access.
Skip this step if you are accessing the GSP using a single-partition-user
account.
If using an operator or administrator account, select the partition whose
console you wish to access.
The console displays the last 10 lines of console output when you connect
to it. This provides you a view of the most recent console activity.
Step 4. Gain interactive access to the partition console.
To interact with the partition console, press Enter to access the currently
available prompt, if any. Typically the BCH interface or the HP-UX login
or command prompt is available from the partition console.
In the following situations you cannot interact with the partition’s
console. In these cases you can wait until the console is available, or you
can force interactive access.
• When the partition is resetting, or when it is booting HP-UX, you
cannot interact with software running on the partition.
