HP Integrity cx2600 Operations and Maintenance Guide

Set Access
SA: Set access options—configures access for LAN and remote/modem ports
This command will disconnect modem, LAN, and web users if access is disabled.
Create Local Session
SE: Log into the system on local or remote port
Only valid from the local or remote/modem port, SE allows the user to leave the MP command
interface and enter a system session. Other mirrored MP users are placed in console mode. The
session user returns to the mirrored MP session on exit.
The MP regularly checks the activity of the session, closes the connection with the system, and,
if the timeout period has elapsed, returns the port to mirroring. The timeout period is set with
the IT command. On HP-UX, the SE command works on the local and remote ports.
In HP-UX, use the System Administration Manager (SAM) to add modem device files for the
session UARTS. The modem type, CCITT or Bell must agree with the remote port settings for
the remote session port and always be Bell mode for the local session port.
If the system and the MP command interface local or remote ports have been configured with
different port speeds, the baud rate changes to the rate specified by the operating system for the
duration of the session.
Display Logs
SL: Display contents of the system status logs
This command displays the contents of the event logs that have been stored in nonvolatile
memory.
• System Event Log (SEL)—High attention events and errors
• Forward progress—All events
• Current boot log—All events between “start of boot” and “boot complete”
• Previous boot log—The events from the previous boot
Reading the system event log turns off the attention LED. Accessing this log is the only way to
turn off the attention LED when it is flashing and alerts have not been acknowledged at the alert
display level.
Events are encoded data that provide system information to the user. Some well-known names
for similar data would be Chassis Codes or Post Codes. Events are produced by intelligent
hardware modules, the operating system, and system firmware. Use VFP to view the live events.
Use SL to view the event log.
Navigate within the logs as follows:
• + — View the next block (forward in time)
• – — View the previous block (backward in time)
• Enter (<CR>)— View the next block in the previously selected direction (forward or backward
in time)
• D — Dump the entire log for capture or analysis
• F — First entry
• L — Last entry
• J — Jump to entry number
• V — View mode configuration (text, keyword, hex)
• ? — Display this help menu
• Q — Quit
Table 5-4 (page 106) defines alert (or severity) levels.
