Sun Advanced Lights-Out Manager

The Sun Fire V210 and V240 servers are shipped with the Sun™ Advanced Lights
Out Manager (ALOM) software installed. The system console is directed to ALOM
by default and is configured to show server console information on startup.
ALOM enables you to monitor and control your server over either a serial
connection (using the SERIAL MGT port), or Ethernet connection (using the NET
MGT port). For information about configuring an Ethernet connection, refer to the
ALOM Online Help.
Note – The ALOM serial port, labelled SERIAL MGT, is for server management
only. If you need a general purpose serial port, use the serial port labeled 10101.
ALOM can be configured to send email notification of hardware failures and other
events related to the server or to ALOM.
The ALOM circuitry uses standby power from the server. This means that:
ALOM is active as soon as the server is connected to a power source, and remains
active until power is removed by unplugging the power cable.
ALOM continues to be effective even when the operating system is offline and
when the server is in Standby mode.
