HP RP2470 LOGIN TO CONSOLE

Hello,

I have an rp2470 never used one before on rp5470 / rx2660 / rp3440 / rp4440 etc.

It seems that all I can get to come up on the rp2470 is GSP and I can not seem to log into the console via serial using a 700/96 Terminal to start the load of 11.11.. PLEASE HELP????

Hi Jim,

once connected to the GSP via serial cable you should see the self test running - anything visible?

Hope this helps!

No there is nothing there at all. I had to reset the GSP in order to sign in at all there is currently no user name and password. I can view the help menu etc. and that is it I tired to sign in to console

There is no way to login in MP like all of the other 9000 servers?

The GSP is the MP.

What prompt do you have? What are you trying to do?

Go to GSP and power cycle the system. Now you should see the selftests on the screen. Did you use the cable labeled "console"?

If it doesn't boot, check the GSP logs and the GSPs "ps" command.

Hope this helps!
