Neal,
Do you have a firewall in place? If so, you need to allow
communication between the HMC and SE. There are a number of ports that are
used by a remote HMC for communications and they are described in Appendix C
of the "Hardware Management Console Operations Guide" (SC28-6873)
.
Hope this helps
