The Service Processor (SP) is a remote management device that enables you to access, monitor, and
troubleshoot a NetApp node remotely
Service Processor (SP) Walk through
Before you can access the SP of a node, the SP network must be configured and enabled
Verify User Access
Example:
Test-C1::> security login show -application service-processor
Vserver: Test-C1
Authentication Acct
User/Group Name Application Method Role Name Locked

SANMAN service-processor password admin no
Configuring a Service Processor
Example:
Test-C1::> system node service-processor network modify -node Test-N1
-address-type IPv4 -enable true -ip-address 192.168.2.1
-netmask 255.255.255.0 -gateway 192.168.2.200
Verify Settings
Example:
Test-C1::> system node service-processor network show -instance -node Test-N1
Node: Test-N1
Address Type: IPv4
Interface Enabled: true
Type of Device: SP
Status: online
Link Status: up
DHCP Status: none
IP Address: 192.168.2.1
MAC Address: ab:cd:ef:fe:ed:02
Netmask: 255.255.255.0
Prefix Length of Subnet Mask: –
Router Assigned IP Address: –
Link Local IP Address: –
Gateway IP Address: 192.168.2.200
Note:
From a security perspective I would only allow certain IP/subnet range access to the SP
Example:
Test-C1::> sp ssh show
Allowed Addresses: 0.0.0.0/0, ::/0
Common Trouble shooting examples
Example:
Test-C1::> system service-processor show

Test-N1 SP online true 3.1.2 192.168.2.1
Test-N2 SP online true 3.1.2 192.168.2.2
Test-N3 SP online true 3.1.2 192.168.2.3
Test-N4 SP online true 3.1.2 192.168.2.4
Test-N5 SP online true 3.1.2 192.168.2.5
Test-N6 SP online true 3.1.2 192.168.2.6
Note:
Rebooting the SP sometimes clears up hung network connections even if the status is in a online state.
Example:
Test-C1::> sp reboot-sp -node Test-N1
Note: If your console connection is through the SP, it will be
Disconnected.
Do you want to reboot the SP ? {y|n}:Y

Test-C1::> system service-processor show
