5 Utilities
Configuring the Rev A Guardian Service Processor (GSP)
The Rev A Guardian Service Processor (GSP) is a resident processor within the system that allows
the local or remote system administrator to monitor and perform administrator functions. This
section provides configuration procedures that will instruct you to:
•
Configure the LAN port
•
Add or delete users (maximum of 20)
•
Change the default GSP configuration
Go to the appropriate section for the task that you wish to accomplish.
Configuring the GSP LAN Port
Perform the LAN configuration from the systems local port (either console or the HP secure web
console).
NOTE:
The GSP has a separate LAN port from the system LAN port. It will need a separate
LAN drop, IP address, and networking information from the port used by HP-UX.
Before starting this procedure, you will need to know the following information:
•
I.P. address (for GSP)
•
Subnet mask
•
Gateway address
•
Hostname (this is used when messages are logged or printed).
To configure the GSP LAN port, perform the following steps:
1.
Go into the GSP with the ctrl+b entry.
2.
At the GSP prompt, enter the LAN Configuration (lc) command:
GSP> lc
The lc command will start a series of prompts. Respond to each prompt with the appropriate
information.
Adding Users
The GSP can only have a maximum of 20 users (one administrator and 19 operators). By design,
the first user added to the GSP becomes the GSP administrator. Only the GSP administrator can
add or remove users or change the GSP configuration.
NOTE:
Before starting this procedure, you will need to know the following information:
•
User's name
•
Organization's name
•
Login name
•
User's password
To add a user, perform the following steps:
1.
Enter the GSP with the ctrl+b entry.
2.
At the GSP prompt, enter the Security options and access control (SO) command:
GSP> so
3.
The first prompt you see with the so command is for GSP-wide parameters:
