EIT Tools Functionality
The Console Logger captures the commands typed at the console, the response displayed, and
alert messages generated by the system. It stores them on the SMS disk drive in a continuous
log format.
The IPMI Log Acquirer acquires FPL and FRUID logs from the remote system and stores them
on the SMS disk drive.
The IPMI Event Viewer analyzes the FPL logs captured by the IPMI Log Acquirer and displays
the system event information through either a command-line or Web-based interface.

Turning On Housekeeping Power
To turn on housekeeping power to the system, follow these steps:
1. Verify that the ac voltage at the input source is within specifications for each cabinet being
installed.
2. Ensure the following:
• The ac breakers are in the OFF position.
• The cabinet power switch at the front of the cabinet is in the OFF position.
• The ac breakers and cabinet switches on the I/O expansion cabinet (if present) are in
the OFF position.
3. If the complex has an IOX cabinet, power on this cabinet first.
IMPORTANT: The 48 V switch on the front panel must be OFF.
4. Turn on the ac breakers on the PDCAs at the back of the each cabinet.
• In a large complex, power on the cabinets in one of the two following orders:
— 9, 8, 1, 0
— 8, 9, 0, 1
• On the front and back panels, the HKP and the Present LEDs illuminate (Figure 3-36).
• On cabinet 0, the HKP and the Present LEDs illuminate, but only the HKP LED
illuminates on cabinet 1 (the right cabinet).
