So how do I find out the IP address to the ASMI port? Is it in STRSST
somewhere?

While I've not tried it, it sounds like the ticket. I had forgotten
about using ASMI to power up the system but that has the exact same
attributes as an HMC would, the FSP is up and running very shortly after
power is restored to the system unit.

Don't laugh at this idea.

2 PCs here can function as LAN Console. Each has 2 NIC cards, with the

2nd

NIC dedicated to the LAN Console connection. There is a single Linksys
switch on top of the System i rack with 3 ethernet cables attached:

1) To the T5 (I think) jack on the System i (10.10.10.1)
2) To my PC (10.10.10.2)
3) To the office manager's PC (10.10.10.3)

This is a completely isolated network. If I run an ethernet cable from

the

ASMI to that switch and can figure out the IP address of the ASMI, can

I

just point a browser from my PC tohttps://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx where
xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx is the IP address? And then I could RDP to my desktop

from

home and away we go?

I think this will work and says about $10K for an HMC...
Find the default AMSI/HMC port IP addresses for your system
Attach a laptop to which ever HMC port you choose using the same IP

subnet

as the port you are attaching to
Open a browser session and log in to AMSI
Set the other HMC port to an address that is compatible with your

local

network including Gateway address
Cable up that port up to the local network and access AMSI
In there I believe you can Power Up the Managed System.
