The connect interface provides direct access to the consoles of serviced systems so that you can perform management tasks on these systems from your own terminal.
To connect to the console of a serviced system, enter:
$ CONSOLE CONNECT system-name
For example, to connect to the system called PEPPER from the command line, enter:
$ CONSOLE CONNECT PEPPER
Connecting to a serviced system lets you do all types of system management tasks on that system as though you were on the local console: for example, rebooting the system or installing software. To be able to connect to a serviced system's console, you must have been granted access by means of a system name or group name in the Console Manager configuration database.
Once you are connected to your specified serviced system, all keystrokes except for the defined halt, escape, exit and refresh keys are transmitted directly to the console of the system to which you are connected. While you are connected you have normal console behavior.
You can also connect to a serviced system using the monitor interface. See Chapter 8, “Using the Monitor Interface,” for more information.
