Text-Based System Management Services

The text-based Open Firmware command line and System Management Services are
available if an ASCII terminal is attached to your server.

To start the text-based System Management Services instead of the Open Firmware
command line, press 1 on the ASCII terminal keyboard when the keyboard text
symbol appears during startup.

After the text-based System Management Services starts, the following screen
appears.

Note: The version of firmware currently installed in your server is displayed at the

top of each screen in the text-based System Management Services. Please
note the version number; processor upgrades may require a specified version
of firmware to be installed in your server. Update System Firmware is an
option under the Utilities menu.
