ILOM -> Prompt
The ILOM service processor runs independently of the server and regardless of
system power state. When you connect your server to AC/DC power, the ILOM
service processor immediately starts up, and begins monitoring the system.
Note – To view ILOM service processor boot messages, you must establish a
connection using a serial device (such as an Alphanumeric terminal) to the serial
management port before connecting AC/DC power cords to the server.
You can log in to the ILOM service processor at any time, regardless of system
power state, as long as AC/DC power is connected to the system and you have a
way of interacting with the system. You can also access the ILOM service processor
prompt (->) from the OpenBoot ok prompt or from the Solaris # or % prompt,
provided the system console is configured to be accessible through the serial
management and network management ports.
The -> prompt indicates that you are interacting with the ILOM service processor
directly. The -> prompt is the first prompt you see when you log in to the system
through the serial management port or network management port, regardless of
host's power state.
