Separate System Console and Service Processor Channels
FIGURE 1-5
If the system console is configured to be accessible from the serial management and
network management ports, when you connect through one of these ports you can
access either the ILOM command-line interface or the system console. You can
switch between the ILOM service processor prompt and the system console at any
time, but you cannot access both at the same time from a single terminal window or
shell tool.
The prompt displayed on the terminal or shell tool tells you which channel you are
accessing:
The # or % prompt indicates that you are at the system console and that the
■
Solaris OS is running.
The ok prompt indicates that you are at the system console and that the server is
■
running under OpenBoot firmware control.
The -> prompt indicates that you are at the service processor.
■
Note – If no text or prompt appears, it might be because no console messages were
recently generated by the system. Pressing the terminal's Enter or Return key should
produce a prompt.
