When a connected device is initialized as hp, sun, or server using the config init command, the service processor commands become available to help automate server management.

Configuring the service processor

Use the config service-processor command to configure communication with the service processor.

Viewing service processor information

Use the show service-processor commands to view information about the service processor:

show service-processor config — Lists the current configuration of the service processor.

show service-processor events — Displays the service processor log.

show service-processor info — Displays information about the service processor.

show service-processor power — States whether the service processor is powered on.

show service-processor sensor — Displays information from the service processor's sensors to give a low-level view of the server's health.

Working with the service processor using IPMI

Use the service-processor execute command to work directly with the service processor.
