vExternal power connector: You can connect an optional ac power adapter to this connector.

vHeartbeat LED: This amber LED flashes continuously to indicate that there is activity on the Remote Supervisor Adapter II-EXA.

vRSA II-EXA breakout port: Connect the RSA II-EXA breakout cable to this port to provide two ASM interconnect ports, one USB port, and one Management port.

vEthernet activity LED: This green LED is lit when there is activity on the Ethernet LAN.

vEthernet link LED: This green LED is lit when the Ethernet link is active.

v10/100 Ethernet port: Connect Ethernet signal cables to this port.

vVideo port: Connect a monitor or console switch to this port.

Important: The integrated video controller is disabled on models that have a Remote Supervisor Adapter II-EXA installed. You must connect a monitor or console switch to the video port on the Remote Supervisor Adapter II-EXA.

vPower LED: This green LED comes on and stays lit when you plug in your server.

c.Continue with “Obtaining Remote Supervisor Adapter II-EXA software and firmware” and “Completing the setup” on page 46.

Note: See the IBM Remote Supervisor Adapter II User’s Guide on the IBM xSeries Documentation CD for detailed information on how to manage your server remotely using the Web-based user interface.

Obtaining Remote Supervisor Adapter II-EXA software and firmware: Before you can continue the configuration of the Remote Supervisor Adapter II-EXA, you must download software and firmware from the IBM Support Web site. This section describes how to download the files from the Web site. Which files you need to download depends on your operating system.

Note: Changes are made periodically to the IBM Support Web site to provide timely customer information and better navigation. The search methods in the following procedures are suggestions. You might need to modify the search process depending on the Web page design.
