HP ProLiant DL145 Lights-Out 100i Remote Management User Guide

Microsoft Windows EMS management

Microsoft® Windows® Server 2003 provides text-based console access. You can
connect a laptop to the remote management processor to perform basic
management tasks on the ProLiant DL145 G1 target system. The Windows®
EMS Console, if enabled, displays the processes that are running and enables
administrators to halt processes. This capability is important in cases in which
video, device drivers, or other operating system features have prevented normal
operation and normal corrective actions.

To enable Windows® EMS management on the target ProLiant DL145 G1
system:

1. Press

the

F10 key during POST to enter BIOS Setup Utility.

2. Press the right arrow (

) key to navigate to the Advanced menu.

3. Press the down arrow (

) key to scroll down to the BIOS Console

Redirection option, and press the Enter key to enter the submenu.

4. Set Com Port Address to BMC USI port.

5. Scroll down to Continue C.R. after POST, and set it to ON.

6. Press

the

Esc key to return to the previous screen, or press the F10 key to

save the changes and exit Setup.

You can now view the Windows® EMS management console remotely by
establishing a telnet session to the IP address of the target server from a client
PC. Consult your operating system documentation for further details on
establishing telnet sessions.

NOTE: If you encounter problems logging in to the remote console, be
aware that some telnet programs might require you to enable their

send

line feed at end of line

option. If the remote console does not

respond to the Enter key, try setting this option in your telnet program.

NOTE: You must follow the instructions in the "Additional network
settings (on page

24

)" section to configure the network access properly.
