Instrucciones
Unity XT arrays (excluding XT 380/380F) have a micro serial port in the back that can be used for a direct connection into the SP. This type of connection can be used instead of IPMI. However both cannot be used simultaneously.
A Micro DB-9 serial cable can be used to connect a computer directly to an SP.
For computers that do not have a serial port a USB to DB-9 serial adapter cable can be used alongside the Micro DB-9 serial cable.
Location of serial port on each SP
Once the serial port is connected on the array open a terminal, select serial connection. Before connecting adjust the speed to 115200.
Note: Verify what COM represents the physical serial connection. Sometimes a different COM port is selected by default.
In the event strange output in the terminal is seen, turn the flow control off.
Once the putty session is opened, a login screen should be seen.
