How to access console for P650 server.
Hi Everyone,

we had a one IBM P650 standalone server, planning to install AIX OS on top of it, I don't have HMC, is their a way to access to console of the server using serial cable or any other option for installing OS on top of it.

Thanks,

Yes, you should be able to use the 9 pin serial connector S1 or S2 serial port and you should be able to access the service processor while at standby and the OS while booted (or installing) from here.

Default is 9600, 8, n, 1.

Here is a link to the books for them:
