    I have 2 units of p570 Server connected with HMC V7. There is no LPAR in each Server. Each Server is comes with OS (AIX) preinstalled from IBM. I can see both the server in HMC and default partition of each server. But the problem is I cannot see terminal console from HMC. I did open terminal windows but only it shows black screen.

    Please help????

    I know it is a long shot but no one else answered so I thought I would give one suggestion.

    Just enable remote ssh acces to the hmc and the mkvterm or vtmenu commands are what you're looking for.

    Hi ,

    On my experience this problem was sorted with HMC latest patches/570 latest Firmware which were advised by IBM pmr support. Can you tell what is the exact HMC-version-patches installed in your environment .

    Thanks

    try to delete tty from the LPAR,login to the lpar the delete tty(if i'm not mistaken-long time i do) then cfgmgr,reboot the AIX.go to hmc and open terminal.on of the reason is because the preinstalled os might not initialized to connect to HMC,if preloaded from factory.better connect to hmc then do fresh install form HMC terminal
