Learn how to connect to the Virtual I/O Server command-line
interface, which allows you to use commands for the Integrated Virtualization Manager.
Connect to the
Virtual I/O Server command-line
interface by using one of the following methods:
- Open a virtual terminal session to the management partition
- For instructions, see Opening a virtual terminal session
for a logical partition.
- Telnet
- You can use Telnet to connect to the command-line interface. Telnet
does not provide a secure connection to the Virtual I/O Server. Therefore,
use Telnet only if the Ethernet adapter that you have configured to
access the management partition is physically isolated from networks
that are not secure.
- OpenSSL or Portable OpenSSH
- You can use OpenSSL or Portable SSH to securely connect to the Virtual I/O Server from a remote
location. For instructions, see Connecting to the Virtual I/O Server using OpenSSH.
