OpenBoot Emergency Procedures

The introduction of Universal Serial Bus (USB) keyboards with the newest systems

has made it necessary to change some of the OpenBoot emergency procedures.

Specifically, the Stop-N, Stop-D, and Stop-F commands that were available on

systems with non-USB keyboards are not supported on systems that use USB

keyboards, such as the SPARC Enterprise T2000 Server. If you are familiar with the

earlier (non-USB) keyboard functionality, this section describes the analogous

OpenBoot emergency procedures available in newer systems that use USB

keyboards.

OpenBoot Emergency Procedures for SPARC

Enterprise T2000 Systems

The following sections describe how to perform the functions of the Stop commands

on systems that use USB keyboards, such as the SPARC Enterprise T2000 Server

server. These same functions are available through Advanced Lights Out Manager

(ALOM) system controller software.

Stop-A (Abort) key sequence works the same as it does on systems with standard

keyboards, except that it does not work during the first few seconds after the server

is reset. In addition, you can issue the ALOM CMT break command. For more

information, see

"Reaching the ok Prompt" on page

22.

Stop-N functionality is not available. However, the Stop-N functionality can be

closely emulated by completing the following steps, provided the system console is

configured to be accessible using either the serial management port or the network

management port.
