Console Modifi Cation; Setenv Command - Planar Dome C3i Quick Reference Manual

Console Modifi cation
The console appears, by default, on the fi rst head of the fi rst board in the system's
probe list. You can change the console with the pci-probe-list environment
variable. If you want to change the console without altering the probe list,
change the output-device environment variable instead. You can use the setenv
command to change environment variables.
To use the setenv command
1 Power on or halt the system to get to the ok> prompt.
2 Type:
setenv output-device <device node>
These examples describe how to change the
console in Ultra™ 10 and Ultra 30 systems.
For more details, refer to your Sun documentation.
3 To make the DX2 board the console in an
Ultra 10 system, type:
setenv output-device /pci/DOME,Dx2PCI
For an Ultra 30 system, which has two PCI buses, type:
setenv output-device /pci@X/DOME,Dx2PCI
where X depends on the location of the board.
For example, if the board is installed in the PCI66 slot, at location
1f,2000, type:
setenv output-device /pci@1f,2000/DOME,Dx2PCI
4 Reboot the system.
