I changed the user interface information on the NMC in the TCM and clicked the Set button but after changing the IP on the NT box where I run TCM and the accounting stuff I can't ping the NMC and can't bring it up on TCM. If I change the IP on the NT box back I can see the NMC using TCM and the information I put in there is still there.
Do you mean you can't ping it or see it in TCM on the old address or the new address? It sounds like you mean that you have changed the IP on the NMC but it still answers to the old IP. Is that correct? Does it still do this if you reboot the NMC (be sure to save the NVRAM first, from the File menu in TCM).
I haven't been able to console into the NMC either. Do you use the same cable that you console into the HiPer Arc with?
Yes, but the speed will be different. The speed on the NMC can be anything from 9600 to 57600, selectable by the DIP switches on the NMC NAC. Set switches 1 and 2 to off for 9600, on for 57600. I recommend 57600; it works much better if you ever have to flash the NMC over the console port :-) It sounds like you are in the same location as the chassis, so it would be worth pulling the NMC NAC out to check. The DIP switches are very near the bottom front of the card, just behind the face plate. If switches 1 and 2 aren't set to on, switch them to on, then make a 57600 console connection.
