down on the failed controller. So, locked interface configuration is required to gather diagnostic
information from a failed controller.

necessary fault diagnosis and resolution times.
Using Oracle ILOM to Diagnose Hardware Faults
In rare cases, faults associated with uncorrectable CPU errors are not diagnosable or displayed
in the controller. These faults are preserved by and observable on the Oracle Integrated Lights
Out Manager (ILOM), which resides in the Service Processor (SP). Connect to the server ILOM
to diagnose hardware faults that do not appear in the BUI.
The server ILOM provides options for (i) network and (ii) serial port connectivity. Network
connection is the preferred choice because the ILOM serial port does not always allow adequate
means of platform data collection. Network connections are on port 215, and serial connections
are on SSH port 22.

For information about using Oracle ILOM, refer to the Oracle Integrated Lights Out Manager
(ILOM) 3.1 Documentation Library at

Logging in to Oracle ILOM Using a Local Serial
Connection
Use the following procedure to log in to Oracle ILOM using a local serial connection.
1.
Prepare an administrative client (terminal or terminal emulator) with the serial
connection parameters:
8N1: eight data bits, no parity, one stop bit
■
9600 baud
■
Disable hardware flow control (CTS/RTS)
■
Disable software flow control (XON/XOFF)
■
