Why do you need a serial connection to the 3PAR? |

You can build your own serial Cable with the following layout, it works ! Attachment: Cable Pinout serial.jpg [ 45.37 KiB | Viewed 32848 times ] |

It's a shame there's no industry standard for console cables. It made me way less nervous changing the networking configuration via a console connection as opposed to SSH. I will say that it took a good 30-60 seconds after connecting to get an actual login prompt and I saw only a few garbled characters at first. Make sure you aren't giving up too quickly! I probably would've assumed I did it wrong if not for being distracted by a co-worker for a bit before spinning around to see my terminal with that delicious login prompt. As an aside for any other Linux-centered admins out there, picocom worked fine for me. In my case (with a serial to USB adapter) it was: Code: picocom -b 57600 -d 8 -f x /dev/ttyUSB0

I made my cable out of APC PDU serial cable, just cutting the phone jack from it and some extra wires, and crimped 8P8C over it. |

Hi all, I need to do a Reset on a HP 3PAR 7200 Controller. I connected through serial connection (baud rate 57600,8,1,none,none) with putty onto the mfg port of controller. The first time i started up the controller received some messages after a few minutes. See attachment Attachment:
File comment: console output HP 3par 7200 console message.JPG [ 25.78 KiB | Viewed 30267 times ] But now i do not receive any messages anymore when i startup de controller. i tried mfg ports of slot 0 and slot 1, but no interaction. Nothing is connected to the controller, just power/serial connection/and disk bay's in the front. I'm missing something to get access through serial connection? Best regards, Bert |

Hi, No solution the system is not runnning with 1 node, i have no output on serial connection. i checked the nodes inside, everything is present and looks fine. the strange thing is that i have 2 systems (4 nodes in total) and i have same problem with 4 nodes. My serial connection is working with other devices. Seems to be hardware problem. We have no hp support contract... we will try to sell the systems for parts (disks/psu/bays) Best regards, Bert |
