Hi Paul
yes, that's assuming the IP address is already assigned (like for
instance if you moved it from another HMC) The find function uses a
range of addresses to look for a specific system, again assuming an
address has been assigned. Basically there's a DHCP thing going on
between the HMC and the Managed Server.
if the system has not been powered on or connected to a HMC before
then just check your HMC cabling to make sure it is correct. If you
have to change it you might need to give it a few minutes.I;ve
occasionally been a bit frustrated and then the managed system just
pops up so going for a short walk can't hurt. A watched pot never boils
questions.

Evan,
I have all that.
The "add managed system" is asking for an IP address.
???

Hi Paul
You should only need the connection between the HMC and the server at
this point, so you only need the connection to between Ethernet
Connector 1 on the HMC and HMC1 port on the Power server.
If the cabling is correct you can always use the HMC Find Managing
system function to go and search for the system. if it is not
connected then connecting it should be enough but you will need to be
a little bit patient as it takes a few minutes.

Evan,server.
I'll have to repeat these steps below, since my HMC did not see the
verify;
- Connect Power to the Managed System; watch them complete the
intitial power on sequence (basically until the power light is
flashing)
- Look for the managed system in the HMC using the serial number to
verify; if my cabling is correct it should have connected and be
waiting for first time authentication
Question.
Do the server's 5899 NIC cards have to be connected at this time?
I didn't think they did?

Hi Paul
I am not sure which manual the table you are referring to appears
in, but generally the sequence of events I follow is something like:
- cable up the machine(s) and HMC including network cables
- Power up the HMC and perform basic configuration
- Connect Power to the Managed System; watch them complete the
intitial power on sequence (basically until the power light is
flashing)
- Look for the managed system in the HMC using the serial number to
if my cabling is correct it should have connected and be waiting forfirst
time authenticationpasswords
- Go through and enter the managed system passwords and ASMI
passwords
- At that point I might start the Managed system using the HMC
I would not skip the passwords as they are required to allow the HMC
to manage the system.
Hope this helps.

I'm following Table 1. Manual HMC configuration tasks and where to
find related information
13. Connect the managed system to a power source.
14. Set passwords for the managed system, and each of the ASMI
list(general and admin) Setting passwords for the managed systemlist
15. Access ASMI to set the date and time on the managed system.
16. Start the managed system and return to this checklist when you
have completed this step.
Questions.
1) Do steps 14 and 15 need to be completed at this time or can they
be done at a latter point?
I've never logged into our ASMI on our current system.
Step 16,
2) How is the managed system stated at this point?
Does it need to be powered on manually before it is added "Add
managed system"?
How is it powered on this done if not yet appearing on the HMC?
Thank You
