Sun Blade X6450 Server Module Installation Guide • May 2009

If the ILOM has calculated that the server module is exceeding its power budget, the
green LED stays Off instead.

Accessing and Configuring the ILOM
Service Processor

The server module includes a service processor (SP) integrated into the
motherboard.

This section provides instructions for:

Displaying the SP’s IP address. See

“To Display the Service Processor’s IP

Address” on page 24

.

Accessing the SP. See

“To Connect to the ILOM Web Interface” on page 25

and

“To Connect to the ILOM CLI” on page 27

.

Configuring the SP’s network settings. See

“To Configure the Service Processor’s

Network Configuration:” on page 28

.

Service Processor Overview

The SP’s built-in system management software enables you to monitor and manage
the components installed in your chassis and server modules. Using the SP, you can
configure network information, view and edit hardware configurations, monitor
vital system information, and manage user accounts.

The chassis has its own service processor, called a Chassis Monitoring Module
Integrated Lights Out Manager (CMM ILOM). In addition to providing chassis
management functions, it provides an Ethernet connection to the server module's SP.
This allows you to view and configure the server module's network information
using the CMM ILOM.

The following sections assume that:

The chassis is powered up

The CMM ILOM is connected to the network and is working correctly

The installer has Ethernet access to the same subnet as the CMM ILOM

If these conditions are not present, see the documentation for your service processor.
