Initialize a service processor

A service processor network server configuration (NWSCFG subtype SRVPRC) object contains configuration information for a service processor or Management Module of an xSeries® or IBM® BladeCenter™ that is used to run an iSCSI attached integrated server. The service processor needs to be initialized before it can be used with an integrated server. You may also want to regenerate or synchronize the user, password, and certificate that are used to secure the service processor connection or change the user or password that are used to connect to the service processor.

To initialize a service processor using iSeries™ Navigator, follow these steps:

1. Expand Integrated Server Administration.
2. Expand iSCSI Connections.
3. Select Service Processors.
4. Right-click a service processor configuration from the list available.
5. Select Initialize.
6. Choose one of the following options:
   • Initialize a new service processor
   • Regenerate service processor certificate
   • Synchronize certificate from service processor
   • Change service processor user ID and password
7. Enter the User and Password, if needed.
8. Click Initialize to perform the selected option.
