Connecting to the Xserve
To add an Intel-based Xserve to the server list in Server Monitor, you use the network
address, user name, and password of the lights-out management port in the Xserve.
For information about changing these settings, see “Configuring the Lights-Out
Management Port” on page 13.
To add the local Xserve (the one on which Server Monitor is running) to the list, use
the IP address 127.0.0.1 and the local administrator’s user name and password.
For information about using Server Monitor, see the Server Monitor onscreen help.
Using the Command Line
For information about using SSH to connect to a remote Xserve and using command-
line tools to check the status of the Xserve, see Mac OS X Server: Command-Line
Administration at www.apple.com/server/resources.
