the information in this section regarding the configuring of serial ports, and modems attached to those serial ports, applies only to the serial ports (s1 and s2) on the service processor/pci backplane (location u0.1-p2). these serial ports are normally used for call-in and call-out.

    call-out is disabled in partitioned systems. the call-out function is normally handled by the service focal point running on the hmc.

    none of these menus are applicable to the serial ports, or modems attached to those serial ports, on the hardware management console (hmc).
