Note – Tosee these status and error messages, connect a terminal or terminal
emulator to the serial management port (SER MGT). For a basic procedure to
connect a terminal or terminal emulator,see “To Power On the System for the First
Time”on page38.
For a more detailed discussion on configuring the system console and connecting
terminals,refer to the SPARC Enterprise T5140 and T5240 Servers Administration Guide.
ILOM Service Processor
After the system console finishes its low-level system diagnostics, the ILOM service
processor initializes and runs a higher level of diagnostics. When you access the
ILOMservice processor using a device connected to the serial management port, you
see the output of the ILOM diagnostics.
By default, the service processor configures the network management port
automatically,retrieving network configuration settings using the Dynamic Host
Configuration Protocol (DHCP) and allowing connections using Secure Shell (SSH).
Note – If you are unable to use DHCP on your network, you must connect to the
ILOM service processor using the serial management port to configure the network
management port for your network. See “ToConfigure the Service Processor
Network Management Port” on page 47.
