You want to know if they are online?
You cannot.
The OS must be up and running for that. Do the checks from OS.

If the server is up and running you can check the status of the MP lan card with CM>LS If you are looking for errors you can check the console log (MP>CL) or show event logs (MP>SL) and then format for text and l for last.

If the server is down do you have pa-risc or itanium architecture? You can either interact with the BCH or efi

If the OS is up, you can access system through console, meaning from MP login. Once you are log in, lanscan, lanadmin, netstat -in can give you full info regarding your LAN cards whethere up or down.

Hi,

You can either check for either check for errors (if any) from MP>SL

Or go to the running OS - MP>CO
then use the HP-UX commands mentioned

MP is the Management (Processor) Console

you can not verify you have to have system UP to check if its fine.

CM> ls
just tell about MP LAN interface not OS lan interface.

Hi,

From MP , you can check MP LAN
MP>CM>LS
For system log
MP>CM>SL

But u can not check LAN from MP, for it u have to check it from OS

#lanscan
#ping
#vi /var/adm/syslog/syslog.log

Cheers//
