Monitoring the System From the Solaris Prompt

To use the Lights-Out Management (LOM) facilities either remotely or locally, you need a terminal connection to the Serial A/LOM port on the server (see “Setting Up a Console Connection to the Server” on page 20).

There are two ways to interrogate LOM or to send it commands to perform:

■Use LOM commands from the lom> shell prompt. For information about how to do this, see Chapter 5.

■Use LOM-specific Solaris commands from the Solaris prompt. These commands are described in this chapter.

All Solaris commands described in this section are available from the main Solaris # prompt. They run a utility called /usr/sbin/lom.

Where appropriate, the command lines given in this section are accompanied by typical output from the commands.

There are also manual pages for the LOM utility.
