HP Integrity rx7620 Server - User Service Guide, Sixth Edition
Resetting the MP through a modem connection may cause Admin^M to display on every enter
keystroke. Attempting a modem reset (MP command MR) does not clear this incorrect response.
This is not experienced with a Telnet connection.
To regain control at a new login prompt, follow these steps:
1. Enter Admin (case sensitive) and press < enter > < ctrl + enter > keys. A new Login prompt
is created.
2. To move on to the Password prompt, re-enter Admin< ctrl + enter >.
3. To reach the Main Menu, enter Admin < ctrl + enter >.
Afterwards, the ^M will not return when the enter key is pressed. The issue will return if the MP
is reset through the modem.
Server Management Overview
Server management consists of four basic functional groups:
• Chassis management
• Chassis logging
• Console and session redirection
• Service access
Chassis Management
Chassis management consists of control and sensing the state of the server subsystems:
• Control and sensing of bulk power
• Control and sensing of DC-to-DC converters
• Control and sensing of fans
• Control of the front panel LEDs
• Sensing temperature
• Sensing of the power switch
• Sensing chassis intrusion
• Reading FRU PROMS
Chassis Logging
Chassis logging consists of maintaining logs of chassis codes:
• Boot codes
• Activity codes
• Error codes
Console and Session Redirection
Console and session redirection enables the console and session terminals to be connected over
RS-232, a modem, or a LAN connection (web console).
Service Access
Service access allows access to and control of the server state. Service access is secured by a
password. Service access functions include:
• Access to chassis logs
• Configuration of partitions
• Control for online addition and replacement
• Access to the virtual front panel
