Tools Reconditioned HP UX Server - How to connect

Hello,

I'm trying to setup a reconditioned HP UX server. The server is HP UX 11 (sorry i'm not at work at the mo so don't have exact version number). Here's what i'm trying to do, please tell me if I'm worng:

1. Connect management card (sometimes called the console?) to the network.
2. Look for a new device in the table on our DHCP server.
3. 'Telnet' to new device (i.e. the management card).
4. Set IP address of the main network card.
5. Connect main network card to the network
6. Power up the box
7. Log on, create users, install software etc.

I seem to be failing at step 2. The server has power. The network card on the 'console' flashes however there are no new devices within the table on my DHCP server.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated. I spent a fair while searching for a 'getting started' guide which covers installation but failed to find anything of use.

FYI, I've tried 3 different network cables so I'm pretty sure its not that.

NAME
setupcon - sets up the font and the keyboard on Linux console SYNOPSIS
setupcon [ option ]... [ variant ... ] DESCRIPTION
setupcon is a program for fast and easy setup of the font and the keyboard on the Linux console. OPTIONS
-k, --keyboard-only Setup the keyboard only, do not setup the font. -f, --font-only Setup the font only, do not setup the keyboard. --force Do not check whether we are on the console. Notice that you can be forced to hard-reboot your computer if you run setupcon with this option and you are on a X server. -v, --verbose Be more verbose. Use this option if something goes wrong. --save If you want to use setupcon early in the boot process, it is possible that /usr is not yet mounted and the required data are not available. This option makes setupcon copy the required data in /etc/console-setup in order to make it available before /usr is mounted. If you use setupcon early in the boot process, then use this option whenever you change the console configuration. --save-only Same like --save, but do not setup the keyboard and the font. This option can be useful if you run setupcon in a X server. -h, --help Display usage information. variant Specifies which configuration file to use. By default the configuration file of setupcon is /etc/default/console-setup but if you use e.g. "chukchi" as variant then the configuration file will be /etc/default/console-setup.chukchi. This allows you to have sev- eral different configurations - for example one for the Chukchi language and another in /etc/default/console-setup for your default configuration. BASIC USAGE
Most of the time you invoke setupcon without arguments. Please look at the README file for more information. AUTHOR
