    hi everyone,

    I am facing problem while i am trying to make connection in serial port of IBM server.
    My server Configuration is look like this:

    System Model: IBM,8203-E4A
    Machine Serial Number: 0636F44
    Processor Type: PowerPC_POWER6
    Processor Implementation Mode: POWER 6
    Processor Version: PV_6
    Number Of Processors: 2
    Processor Clock Speed: 4204 MHz
    CPU Type: 64-bit
    Kernel Type: 64-bit
    LPAR Info: 1 06-36F44
    Memory Size: 7680 MB
    Good Memory Size: 7680 MB
    Platform Firmware level: EL340_039
    Firmware Version: IBM,EL340_039
    Console Login: enable
    Auto Restart: true

    now the problem:
    while connecting HSM(Host Security Module) to default Serial Port of the machine, i was failed.(after some r&d i made a conclusion that the default serial port of this series of Server do not work as RS232. rather it has limited functionality options. if i need to establish communication then i have to add connector between the serial port in of IBM machine and HSM).....
    then i used PCI connector to connect my HSM....
    but the problem is still same i am not getting out of all this. i am not being able to connect HSM via my sever.

    So guys please help me....if u need any kind of detail i will provide you.

    Regards,
    Frusted.
