Use SMIT to define a tty on an available serial port on your server.
Use the SMIT System Environments and Assign the Console menus to set this tty to be your console for the next system restart.
That document is if you already have a console, you can use SMIT or SMITTY to redirect it to serialport vty
What if the system has no CONSOLE at all. there is no way to change the settings in SMS menu since there is no display
gito you mentioned "If you will find proper USB->Serial cable you will be able to go to SMS menu and start some installation."
Gito: I connected Serial to Serial ( Pseries Serial to PC Serial ) opened hyper terminal but does not show up anything. I think the display on Pseries is not configured for serial but it is configured for tty0
what is the fastest and easiest way to open a console or connect a laptop to Pseries.
Unfortunately, we don't know the IP address , otherwise we could have telnet.
The scenario is like this:
* Pseries without video card -- cannot connect normal monitor
* We don't know the IP address of the machine so telnet is not possible
Porobably your server was connected to HMC or IVE before
In this moment serial ports are disabled
Now you have 2 ways:
1. Easy not legal way - you can install hmc on vmware and connect
the machine to HMC
2. Reset FSP and connect directly by serial IBM
HI,
Does anyone installed a GPS from his Serial port to an IBM Server serial port with AIX 5.X

Hi
Do I have to open my ssh port if I like to connect to another machine?
- if yes, how?
Or is that only if I want to access my one computer from the outside?
I run Mac OS 10.4 and like to access a unix box on the other side.

I have two Ultra 80s that I'm working with, on one of them I was able to get video and build the system, but on the other ultra 80, the monitor switches on but doesn't display any video. Any suggestions as to how I could go about troubleshooting this?
