  1. Guardian Service Processor

  2. Module Objectives Upon completion of this module, you will be able to: • Define the GSP • List three ways to connect to the GSP • Log onto the GSP • Define BCH • Effectively use the VFP (Virtual Front Panel) • View Console Logs • View Chassis Logs • Exit the GSP

  3. What is the GSP? • The GSP is used to monitor activity in the cabinet containing the GSP and every other cabinet in the complex (where more than one SPU cabinet is installed and connected to the GSP). • Menu driven

  4. Connecting to the GSP There are three ways to connect to the GSP: • Local RS232 port with a null modem cable • Remote RS232 using a modem cable over a modem • LAN connection with laptop running Reflection1 (recommended)

  5. Recommended Console Devices Customers can choose to supply or purchase one of the following devices to provide LAN Console connection for their Superdome complexes: • Any HP workstation product running HP-UX 11.x • Any PC with Windows NT >= 4.0 and Reflection 1 • Any PC with Windows 98 or 2000 and Reflection 1

  6. Logging into the GSP • GSP login: Admin • GSP password: • Welcome to • Superdome's Guardian Service Processor • GSP MAIN MENU: • Utility Subsystem FW Revision Level: 6.26 • CO: Consoles • VFP: Virtual Front Panel • CM: Command Menu • CL: Console Logs • SL: Show chassis Logs • HE: Help • X: Exit Connection • GSP>

  8. GSP Command Menu SubMenus GSP Commands are subdivided into three sections: • Service commands • Status commands • System and Access config commands

  9. GSP Service Commands • BO : Boot a partition. • DF : Display FRU information of an Entity. • MA : Return to the Main menu. • MR : Modem Reset • PE : Power entities on or off. • RE : Reset entity. • RR : Reset a partition for reconfiguration. • RS : Reset a partition. • TC : Send a TOC signal to a partition. • TE : Broadcast a message to all users of the GSP Command Handler. • VM : Margin the voltage in a cabinet • WHO: Display a list of GSP connected users

  10. GSP Status Commands • CP : Display partition cell assignments • HE : Display the list of available commands • LS : Display LAN connected console status • MS : Display the status of the Modem • PS : Display detailed power and hardware configuration status.

  22. Boot Partition – bo Command GSP:CM> bo This command boots the selected partition. # Name --- ---- 0) mvsd1p0 1) mvsd1p1 Select a partition number: 0 Do you want to boot partition number 0? (Y/[N]) n -> The selected partition will NOT be booted. GSP:CM> CM> BO releases BIB and allows BCH to finish booting CM> VFP to determine forward progress

  23. Complex Configuration – cc Command This command allows you to change the complex profile. WARNING: You must either shut down the OSs for reconfiguration or execute the RR (reset for reconfiguration) command for all partitions before executing this command. G - Build genesis complex profile L - Restore last complex profile Select profile to build or restore: Genesis profile defines cell for partition 0. Cell chosen should have bootable device attached.

  24. LAN Configuration – lc Command This command modifies the LAN parameters. Current configuration of GSP customer LAN interface MAC address : 00:10:83:fd:07:68 IP address : 15.32.65.48 0x0f204130 Name : mvsd1-g Subnet mask : 255.255.248.0 0xfffff800 Gateway : 15.32.64.1 0x0f204001 Status : UP and RUNNING Do you want to modify the configuration for the customer LAN? (Y/[N])

  25. Reset Partition for Re-configuration – rr Command This command resets for reconfiguration the selected partition. WARNING: Execution of this command irrecoverably halts all system processing and I/O activity and restarts the selected partition in a way that it can be reconfigured. # Name --- ---- 0) mvsd1p0 1) mvsd1p1 Select a partition number:

  26. Reset Partition for Re-configuration – rs Command This command resets the selected partition. WARNING: Execution of this command irrecoverably halts all system processing and I/O activity and restarts the selected partition. # Name --- ---- 0) mvsd1p0 1) mvsd1p1 Select a partition number:

  27. Security options – so Command GSP:CM> so 1. GSP wide parameters 2. User parameters Which do you wish to modify? ([1]/2) 2 Current users: LOGIN USER NAME ACCESS PART. STATUS 1 Admin Administrator Admin 2 Oper Operator Operator 3 a a Admin Disabled 1 to 3 to edit, A to add, D to delete, Q to quit : q GSP:CM> 1 to 3 to edit, A to add, D to delete, Q to quit : q

  28. Other Things to Know “q” is extremely useful in aborting commands “Ctrl B” is necessary to exit the console and gain access to GSP Main Menu

  29. Virtual Front Panel E indicates error since last boot # Partition state Activity - --------------- -------- 0 HPUX heartbeat: *

  30. When bringing a system up, it is useful to open three windows: • CM for commands. To determine: • If action is required • If BIB blocked • CO for BCH console so when you are ready to go to BCH, you are already there. • VFP to watch forward progress. You can see what's happening, where's its booting, and what boot process you are at.

  31. The End….
