Sun Microsystems V490 manual Establish a system controller session

What to Do

1.Establish a system controller session.

For instructions, see the Sun Remote System Controller (RSC) User’s Guide, which is included on the Sun Fire V490 Documentation CD.

2.At the system ok prompt, type:

ok setenv diag-out-console true

ok setenv input-device rsc-console ok setenv output-device rsc-console

3.To cause the changes to take effect, type:

ok reset-all

The system permanently stores the parameter changes and boots automatically if the OpenBoot variable auto-boot?is set to true (its default value).

4.To connect to the system console, at the system controller prompt, type:

rsc> console

Note – To reverse the system controller console redirection manually and temporarily by resetting OpenBoot configuration variables, follow the instructions in “About OpenBoot Emergency Procedures” on page 54. Otherwise follow the system controller console exit steps in the section, “How to Restore the Local System Console” on page 161.
