Enabling Or Disabling The Sol Feature On The Server - Sun Microsystems Sun Fire V20z Management Manual

Serial over LAN requires a properly configured LAN connection and a console from
which an ssh session can be established.
In a Linux environment, you can use a shell such as csh or ksh as your console. This
console works well in a scripting environment in which you might want to monitor
many servers.

Enabling or Disabling the SOL Feature on the Server

Note – When the SOL feature is enabled, you cannot access the Sun Fire V20z server
through the external DB9 serial port (COM A).
Note – The variable spuser is the user account created when securing the SP. The
variable spipaddr is the IP address assigned to the SP.
For more information, see "Initial Setup of the Service Processor" on page 8.
