Operating the <strong>Server</strong><br />

• LCD Panel<br />

You can use the LCD panel on the front of the cell to monitor the initial phase of boot<br />

from power-off. Immediately after power-on, the LCD displays a ″<strong>System</strong> booting...″<br />

message. This message is displayed until the hardware has finished initializing and the<br />

system BIOS starts to boot. Once the system BIOS has booted, the LCD displays the<br />

system name.<br />

• Virtual Console<br />

After the <strong>System</strong> BIOS starts booting, you can use the platform management card<br />

Virtual Console to display the messages displayed by the cell as it boots through the<br />

system BIOS and the BIOS on other hardware on the platform (for example, internal<br />

disk controller), and as s-Par boots and initializes (ISM only).<br />

To launch the Virtual Console for a particular platform, access the BMC web interface<br />

from the MCP Console of the platform. After logging in, click the Launch button on<br />

the right side of the screen to launch the virtual console<br />

• Platform Console<br />

You can access the Platform Console of the ISM from the MCP Console to view the<br />

status of the environments.<br />

Once s-Par has booted (ISM only) and it reports status of various component<br />

environments as ″Running″, start the Platform Console to monitor the status of the<br />

platform environments as they are started.<br />

• MCP Console<br />

You can access the MCP Console from the Operations <strong>Server</strong> or a remote workstation<br />

to view the state of the MCP Environment. Once the MCP Environment is loaded, use<br />

an MCP ODT to perform operations from within the MCP Environment.<br />

• MCP ODT<br />

You can access an MCP ODT from the Operations <strong>Server</strong> or a remote workstation to<br />

view the internal status of the MCP Environment and to perform operational tasks<br />

within the environment.<br />

Shutting Down the Platform<br />

The platform, including the component environments, can be gracefully or forcefully<br />

shutdown. Using either shutdown method also powers off the platform.<br />

Note: Before you shutdown the platform, halt the MCP using the MCP Console.<br />

• To shutdown the platform, access the MCP Console and from the Component<br />

View tab, right-click the <strong>System</strong> node and then click Shutdown (Graceful).<br />

• To forcefully shutdown the platform, access the MCP Console and from the<br />

Component View tab, right-click the <strong>System</strong> node and then click Shutdown<br />

(Forceful).<br />
