Note – If you connect a terminal or emulator to the serial port before it has been powered up or during its power-up sequence, you will see bootup messages.

When the system has booted, the ILOM displays its login prompt:

SUNSPnnnnnnnnnn login:

The first string in the prompt is the default host name. It consists of the prefix SUNSP and the ILOM’s MAC address.

4.Log in to the CLI as root and enter the root password.

When you have successfully logged in, the SP displays the ILOM default command prompt:

->

The ILOM is now accessing the CLI. You can now run CLI commands.

For example, to display status information about the motherboard in your server, type the following command:

-> show /SYS/MB

Use the ILOM commands to configure the server’s user accounts, network settings, access lists, alerts, and so on. For detailed instructions on CLI commands, see the Integrated Lights Out Manager (ILOM) Administration Guide, 819-1160.

5.To go to the host serial console (host COM0), type the following commands: cd /SP/console

-> start

Note – After you have returned to the serial console, to switch back to the CLI, enter the Escape and left parenthesis [ ( ] key in rapid succession.
