Navigating through Service Processor Menus
Figure 3-3 on page 98 shows the commands and options for returning to
the service processor Main menu and for ending a service processor login
session.
The following list also includes tips for navigating through service
processor menus and using various menu features:
• Control-b
Exit current console, console log, chassis log, or Virtual Front
Panel.
When accessing an nPartition’s console, any log files, or any Virtual
Front Panel (VFP), you can exit and return to the Main menu by
typing ^b (Control-b).
• Q (or lower-case q)
Exit or cancel current menu prompt.
Enter Q (or lower-case q) as response to any menu prompt to exit the
prompt and return to the previous sub-menu.
You can do this throughout the service processor menus, including the
console menus, various command menu prompts, and the log and
VFP menus.
Note that, from the Command menu prompt (GSP:CM> or MP:CM>) you
must enter MA (not Q) to return to the Main menu. However, you can
enter Q or q to cancel any command.
• Control-]
Escape the service processor connection and return to the
telnet prompt.
At any time during your telnet connection to a service processor, you
can type the ^] (Control-right bracket) escape sequence.
This key sequence escapes back to the telnet prompt. When at the
telnet> prompt you can use the following commands, among others:
? (print telnet command help information), close (close the current
connection), and quit (exit telnet).
To return to the service processor connection, type enter (or return)
one or more times.
