Remote console overview

This chapter describes an overview of the remote console.

□General overview

□Functions and requirements

Remote console overview 1-1

Hitachi Compute Blade 500 Series Remote Console User's Guide

General overview

Remote console is available for Hitachi Compute Blade 500 as a console for

operating sever blades. You can remotely power on or off a server blade,

configure EFI settings, and install an OS with remote console.

Execute the remote console application on a system console to use the

remote console.

Tip: You need to have the administrator privilege to use the remote console

on a system console. If not, some remote console functions may not work.

Connection to a system console

Connect the MGMT0 port of a management module in the rear of the system

unit and a system console with a LAN cable. When two management modules

are installed, connect to the management module with MSR LED lighting solid

green.

Figure 1-1 Connection between a system console and management

module via LAN cable

Note:

•Complete network settings for the system unit before connecting the

management module to the network. If a device with the same IP address

as the management module or other modules in the system unit exists on

the network when the management module is connected to the network,

an error occurs in the system unit.

• Management module is needed to connect with an external LAN switch

while using in LPAR manager mode. For details, see Hitachi Compute

Blade 500 Series Server Blade Setup Guide.

Tip: You can use either cable, a straight cable or cross cable, to connect to

the LAN port of a system console. Data transfer speed is automatically

selected among 10/100/1000 Mb/sec.

Functions and requirements

This section describes functions and operation of the remote console.
