Connecting through the DRAC/MC
Follow these steps when connecting through the DRAC/MC:
Step 1 Connect one end of a DB9 null-modem or crossover cable to the RS-232 console
serial port of the DRAC/MC. Connect the other end of the cable to the RS-232
console serial port of the PC.
Step 2 On the PC terminal emulation program:
a. Set the data format to 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, and no parity.
b. Set the terminal emulation speed to 115200 baud.
c. Set Flow Control to none.
d. Under Properties, select VT100 for Emulation mode.
e. Select Terminal keys for Function, Arrow, and Ctrl keys. Ensure that the
setting is for Terminal keys (not Windowskeys).
When using HyperTerminal with Microsoft Windows 2000, ensure that you have
Windows 2000 Service Pack 2 or later installed. With Windows 2000 Service
Pack 2, the arrow keys function properly in the HyperTerminal VT100 emulation.
Go to www.microsoft.com for information on Windows 2000 service packs.
Step 3 On the console monitor, the DRAC/MC application displays a login screen.
Log in by using these defaults:
username root
password calvin
The DRAC/MC command-line interface (CLI) command prompt DRAC/MC:
appears.
Note If the server chassis is off, use this command to power it on:
racadm chassisaction -m chassis powerup
The switch inserted into the chassis I/O bay automatically powers on
when the server chassis powers on. For more information on configuring
the server chassis by using the CLI, see the Dell Remote Access
Controller/Modular Chassis User's Guide.
