NOTE: Most of the MP commands of the HP Integrity rx8620 are similar to the HP Integrity rx2600 MP commands, but there are some differences. The two MPs for the HP Integrity rx8620 operate in a master/slave relationship. Only the master MP, which is on Core IO board 0, is assigned an IP address. Core IO board 0 is always the top Core IO board. The slave MP is used only if the master MP fails.
5.Enter LC to configure the IP address, subnet mask, and default gateway address for the HP Integrity rx8620 master MP interfaces; do not configure an IP address for the slave MP.
See “Setting Static IP Addresses on Integrity Servers” (page 122) for information on static IP addresses.
Also verify the IPMI over LAN option is enabled. Enable this option if it is disabled. This setting is required for Nagios monitoring.
Return to the Command Menu.
6.Enter XD to apply your changes. Enter R to restart the MP.
7.Enter CM to return to the Command Menu.
8.Enter SO to set the MP user name and password. The user name must have a minimum of 6 characters, and the password must have a minimum of 8 characters. You must set the same user name and password on every node.
IMPORTANT: The remaining steps in this procedure (setting the network boot option, the boot order, and console options) must be performed twice, once for each partition on the HP Integrity rx8620 system.
On HP Integrity rx8620 systems, some MP commands, such as CO and PE, prompt you to supply the partition on which to perform the action.
9.Enter PE (power enable) to turn on power to the cabinet, if it is not already turned on.
10.Enter PE (power enable) to turn on power to the partition.
