Set Up Server Module Using Local KVM Connection

Before You Begin

This procedure requires you to have:

• Physical presence at the server module chassis.

• Access to an Administrator account to log in to Oracle ILOM CLI.

• An SP IP address to log in to Oracle ILOM using a KVM connection.

• A VGA monitor available for KVM connection. A VGA monitor connects to the 15-pin multi-port cable connector.

• A USB keyboard and mouse available for KVM connection.

• A multi-port cable for server module connection.

You can access Oracle ILOM (CLI), Oracle ILOM (web interface), and Oracle System Assistant through KVM.

To set up the server module KVM console locally:

1. Attach the multi-port cable's universal connector port (UCP) to the UCP port on the server module front panel.
   

   ---

   Caution - Cable or connector damage possible. Use the multi-port cable for configuration and service purposes. Disconnect the multi-port cable from the server module after the configuration or service operation is complete to avoid damaging the cable or connector.

   ---

2. Attach the VGA monitor cable to the DB–15 video connector on the multi-port cable.
   
3. Attach a USB keyboard and a USB mouse to the two USB connectors on the multi-port cable.
   
4. Determine the server module Oracle ILOM SP IP Address.

   Skip this step if you have the server module Oracle ILOM SP IP Address.

   Choose a method to obtain the server module SP IP address, as described in the following sections:

   • Display Server Module Oracle ILOM SP IP Address (Web Interface)

   • Display Server Module Oracle ILOM SP IP Address (CLI)

5. Log in to Oracle ILOM.

   Choose a method to access the server module's service processor (SP) Oracle ILOM, as described in the following sections:

   • Log In to Oracle ILOM SP (Web Interface)

   • Log In to Oracle ILOM SP (CLI)

6. Manage the server module and configure Oracle ILOM.

   Refer to the Oracle ILOM 3.1 documentation library for more information about how to configure Oracle ILOM, see http://www.oracle.com/goto/ILOM/docs.
