Configuring Serial Management Port Ownership

By default, the service processor (SP) uses the serial management port (SER MGT) for serial
console output. Using Oracle ILOM, you can specify that the host be assigned as owner of
the serial management port (configured as COM1). This feature is useful for Windows kernel
debugging, as it enables you to view non-ASCII character traffic from the host console.
You can assign ownership of the serial management port using either the Oracle ILOM web
interface or command-line interface (CLI). For instructions, see the following sections:
"Assign Serial Port Ownership Using the CLI" on page 62
