| Part 2 Serial Port Driver Features (PRIMEPOWER800/900/1000/1500/2000/2500/HPC2500 and GP7000F Models 1000/2000) | > Chapter 7 Connecting the Console |
At the first setup of the partition, serial ports on the system boards installed in the smallest slot number and the second of smallest slot number are automatically selected for the console from among the system boards which comprise the partition by OpenBootPROM(OBP). And OBP saves the information of selected system boards to the OBP's environment variables "tty-conspath" and "tty-sub-conspath."
Even if the composition of the system board in a partition was changed, these environment variables do not change. Therefore, when partition composition is changed, you must reconfirm these variables, and they need to be set as the system board which surely exists in the partition.
If the system boards defined as "tty-conspath" and "tty-sub-conspath" do not exist in the partition, the serial port of the system board on which the smallest number in a partition was attached will turn into a serial port for consoles. However, the value of "tty-conspath" and "tty-sub-conspath" are not changed.
Please refer to "7.4.2 Configuration" about a setup of the duplicated OS console of the host machine.
Please also refer to the following documents about a setup about console connection.
