Powering on the servers

Procedure 10 Powering on the servers

At the server, 1

ATTENTION

Do not have any bootp servers on the same subnet of the system. If there is such a server, disconnect the LAN interface cable from the system subnet.

Turn power on to the server.

2If the system boots up, log into the server as root.

3Type init 0 [Enter].

This will bring you to the boot (>ok) prompt. If the system does not have Solaris installed, it will power up to the >ok prompt. You may have to send a break to get the >ok prompt. The servers will more than likely boot up to a Solaris System Identification screen. Do not answer those questions. Send a break to get to the >ok prompt so you can then boot from the CD-ROM.

Procedure 11 Power on to get the >ok prompt
