Using the p5/p6 operator panel to get FSP IP addresses


Technote
Question
If my managed system isn't yet attached to an HMC, how can I use the operator panel to get the addresses for the FSP of my managed systems?
Answer
To get the service processor IP address and port location from the operator panel, you must first switch to manual mode (using function 02) and then use function 30 to get the FSP addresses.

Here is what the operator control panel on most p5 systems and the 9117-MMA will look like:


A Power push-button 
B
 On/off power symbol
C Type and serial number label
D Function/data display
E Ethernet connector
F Power on light
blinking light indicates standby power to the unit.
constant light indicates full system power to the unit.
G System attention light
H Decrement (↓)
I Enter push-button (
à)

J Increment (↑)

The control panel for the 8203-E4A, 8204-E8A, 9407-M15,9408-M25, and 9409-M50.



A: Power-on button
B:
 Power LED
A blinking light indicates standby power to the unit.
A constant light indicates full system power to the unit.
Note: There is approximately a 30-second transition period from the time the power-on button is pressed to when the power LED goes from blinking to solid. During the transition period, you might observe the blinking intervals speed up.
C: Attention light
D: USB port
E: Pinhole reset button
F: Function/Data display
G: Decrement button
H: Enter button
I: Increment button
 
Changing To Manual Mode using Function 02
