Re: Connecting to pSeries LPAR

Easiest way would be to configure unprompted ssh between your server and the target HMC/IVM. Then you should be able to configure an "exec" type console and use "ssh padmin@ivmhostname mkvt -id lparid" or "ssh hscroot@hmchostname mkvterm -m managedystemname --id lparid" as the command to execute.

There are also tools available that support this function. IBM's Cluster Systems Management product (http://www-304.ibm.com/jct03004c/systems/clusters/software/csm/) includes this feature, as does the open source xCAT product (http://xcat.sourceforge.net)

Does anyone have a config snippet for connecting to the console of a
pSeries LPAR?  How do you handle authentication with the IVM/HMC?

Thanks,

Nate
