In this post, I will guide you to how to find the console IP address in HP-UX operating system if we lost or forgotten. So here, I will provide you the simple steps to get back the console IP address of HP-UX system.
For Itanium systems running 11.31 version only we can use smh and the cprop command. These both method works to recover the forgotten password.
cprop is what the smh webpage uses to retrieve the IP address. Run the smh webpage (hostname:hpx)
Home -> System -> Management Processor
It is show you the IP address of console port. Also please find the below "cprop" command usage, how to we run this command.
hpx:/>/opt/propplus/bin/cprop -summary -c “Management Processor”
[Component]: Management Processor
[Table]: Management Processor

For PARISC boxes and Itanium models running 11.23 or earlier, you must use the serial port on the back of the box. The commands will be:
ctrl-a (to get the attention of the console interface)
<login> typically Admin and Admin
CM (to get to the command menu)
LC
MA (to exit the CM menu)
X (to exit the GSP or MP menu)
You need to connect a serial cable on Serial port of the HP-UX server and connected to own laptop. Once you will get the ssh or telnet session from serial connection, you need to run the above command to get the IP address of HP-UX console.
Sometimes the serial port is not working then in this case you need to login in serial management port of the server and recover the IP address again.
