HP E1200-320 manual Using the Command Line Interface, Power-up messages

6 Using the Command Line Interface

This chapter describes specific configuration options available from the perspective of the Command Line Interface (CLI). For an overview of using the other configuration methods available, see ”Interface card management” on page 27.

The interface card allows the user to access many configuration settings through the Command Line Interface. Among these settings are:

•Serial, Ethernet, and fibre port configuration

•Fibre LUN mapping

•Assigning LUN maps to Hosts

•Trace level settings

All of the above settings may be changed and saved.

NOTE: Unless otherwise indicated, configuration changes take effect when the system next powers on or reboots.

Power-up messages

When the HP e1200-320 4Gb Interface Card powers on, a series of power-up messages appear on the terminal or terminal emulation program for the serial port or the Telnet utility for Telnet sessions.

A series of power-up self tests are performed while the library starts (which can take up to 90 seconds), and messages related to these tests are visible from the serial port. If completed successfully, the main menu appears, as shown in Figure 40.

NOTE: The illustrations in this chapter use Xs to represent numeric values for certain data fields, such as the product release version and the revision of firmware.

NOTE: For the serial port, if you do not see messages over the Command Line Interface, you may need to re-check your computer’s serial port settings.

The main menu appears as follows:
