Hi experts,

I forget my ALOM ip of Sun 880. My system is up. And i cannot do like -scshutdown to go SC> console.

How can i find out the ALOM IP?

I tried with direct connection through Hyperterminal in my laptop. But no prompt came. i use 9600 baud rate, data bit 8, parity-none, flowcontrol Hardware. It didn't work.

I also don't know if i somehow able to go sc> console, can i collect the ALOM ip from there??

I need to findout ALOM IP. Please suggest.

You should be able to connect to sc through the serial connection (hyperterminal) as well. What settings exactly, that I do not know. If you do get the sc, then you can run 'showsc' to get the values of the different paramters (including your missing IP address).

use the original DB9-RJ45 adapter (PN.: 530-3100-01)
default settings: 9600/8/n/1

this should also work in solaris with:
# /usr/platform/`uname -i`/sbin/scadm show

i tried below. But got an error--

# /usr/platform/`uname -i`/sbin/scadm show
/usr/platform/SUNW,Sun-Fire-880/sbin/scadm: not found
#

Does it work for all platforms?

On my T2000:

test-build# pwd
/usr/platform
test-build# ls -l */sbin/scadm

My machine is SUNW,Sun-Fire-880. I didn't see any 'scadm' in Sun-Fire-880.

the v880 doesn't suite an alom.. there is an rsc card! you need the rsc software from sun and use it like scadm -> "rscadm show".
the path is the same as above:

/usr/platform/`uname -i`/rsc/rscadm show

you can get the software (if not installed) here:
