Java Console Login Failed..
Dear Unix Team,

This is sudhansu once again. I need some tips on below issue.

Sometimes we got calls from customer that their console got hangged means they are not able to access the server through console ip.

in that case "resetsc -y" will resolve the issue.

2. But couple of days ago i got a call from customer that their console was not working. When i checked the server from "SERIAL MGT" through putty, nothing is visible on screen . only the blank screen is there. In that cases we didn't give "resetsc- y" command because nothing is visible. So i give a Power Dreain to the server and hopefully it works..

Now my question is , it is not advisable to down the live server for that.. Is there any other method to solve this " CONSOLE LOGIN FAILED" issue. And also i want to know that why this console got hanged. Because this type of cases are very often in that customer place..


Please give your valuable inputs on this..

NAME

       install-solaris - install the Solaris operating system

SYNOPSIS

       install-solaris

       install-solaris  invokes  the  Solaris  Install  program. Depending on graphical capability and available memory at the time of invocation,
       install-solaris invokes either a text-based installer or a graphical installer.

       The following minimum requirements for physical memory dictate which features are available during installation:

       For SPARC machines:

       128 MB

           Minimum physical memory for all installation types

       128 MB

           Minimum physical memory required for windowing system

       512 MB
