Because the number of this device name is allocated from the instance number of driver, this number
does not necessarily correspond to the slot number of the system board.
Do not change the setting of port monitor, etc. to the serial port for the console. Because the physical
device of the serial port used for the console is the physical device path which are linked from logical
device under /dev/fjse directory, the logical devices under /dev/term and /dev/cua, and /dev/se_hdlcX
files, which link to above-mentioned physical device path, are devices used for the console.
Other than the serial port for consoles, five serial ports can be used by the user. However, keep in
mind that it is necessary to stop beforehand the application that is using the serial port of the system
board or the PCI/disk BOX in order to disconnect the system board by Dynamic Reconfiguration.
Only the devices that are not used as a console path, can be used for FJVTS and SunVTS.
