Connect Through the Ethernet Port of the Modular System CMM (CLI)

You can connect to the CMM through the RJ-45 NET MGT 0 Ethernet port. While this Ethernet connection supports both the CLI and the web interface to the CMM SP, this installation procedure uses the CLI.

  1. Know the IP addresses for the CMM and the server module SP that you plan to connect.
  2. Ensure that the CMM is connected to the network you are on.

    The network connection is through the RJ-45 connector labeled NET MGT 0 on the CMM.

  3. Log in to the CMM with the SSH client.
    $ ssh root@ipaddress

    Replace ipaddress with the IP address of the CMM.

  4. Type your password for the CMM ILOM root account when prompted.

    The factory default ILOM root password is changeme.

    Password: CMM_ILOM_password
    Oracle(TM) Integrated Lights Out Manager
    Version 3.x.x
    ...
    Warning: password is set to factory default.
    ->

    You are now logged in to the CMM ILOM CLI.


    Note - When you are ready to log out of the CMM ILOM, type exit.


  5. Navigate to the server module SP.
    -> cd /CH/BLn/SP/cli

    Replace n with a number that identifies the chassis slot in the modular system where the target server module is installed.

  6. Access the server module SP.
    -> start
    Are you sure you want to start /CH/BLn/SP/cli (y/n)? y
    start: Connecting to /CH/BLn/SP/cli as user root

    If you are prompted for a password for the root user on the server module SP, type changeme (the factory default password).

    You are now logged into ILOM on the server module SP.

  7. Continue to power on the server module host for the first time.
