Connecting the CE Tool to the Local RS-232 Port on the MP
This connection enables direct communications with the MP. Only one window can be created
on the CE Tool to monitor the MP. When enabled, it provides direct access to the MP and any
partition.
To connect the CE Tool to the local RS-232 port on the MP, follow these steps:
1. Connect one end of a null modem cable (9-pin to 9-pin) (Part Number 5182-4794) to the
Local RS-232 port on the core I/O card (the DB9 connector located at the bottom of the core
I/O card).

Turning On Housekeeping Power and Logging In to the MP
After connecting the serial display device, the power to the server cabinet is ready to be supplied
to get a login prompt for the management processor (MP). Connecting the power cords enables
power to flow to the bulk power supplies (BPS) located at the front of the server cabinet, which
in turn provides housekeeping power (HKP).
