Does admintool write to eeprom?
Hi: I was setting up a modem on an Ultra5 running 2.6. (yes I know, how quaint)
There are 15 systems that are interlinked but not accessible to the outside world.
This will end soon with new updated sun systems but until then the system needs to be accessed by the outside world. Hence the modem.
I was called in to help out and discovered that the serial port was not set up correctly I corrected this and then happened to look at the eeprom and the engineer that I was helping remarked that the two entries for the serial ports had not been there before. Because the Ultra 5 is used in a production environment it cannot be shut it down to look at the ok prompt (OBP).
When admintool serial is changed and you choose "Apply" does this update the eeprom? And is it written to the eeprom or will it default to what it was before once the ultra 5 has been rebooted?
Thanks

WEDGED(8) System Manager's Manual WEDGED(8)
NAME
wedged - HylaFAX modem wedged script
SYNOPSIS
/var/spool/hylafax/bin/wedged devid device
DESCRIPTION
bin/wedged is the command script invoked by the facsimile server when a modem is deemed to be in an irreparable state and requires operator
intervention. This decision is based on the setting of the MaxSetupAttempts configuration parameter described in hylafax-config(5). The
default wedged script sends electronic mail to the FaxMaster alias. The interval at which emails are sent can be configured in the
etc/FaxDispatch file by setting the WEDGED_EMAIL_INTERVAL variable to the desired number of minutes (emails will be sent no more than every
WEDGED_EMAIL_INTERVAL minutes, until the wedged condition persists). If the variable WEDGED_DISABLE_FAXGETTY is set in etc/FaxDispatch
then the script will attempt to disable any faxgetty processes spawned by the init(8) process for the problematic modem. In addition the
faxq(8) process automatically disables use of the modem for servicing outbound jobs.
The devid argument is the identifier derived from the name of the modem's device file by substituting ``_'' characters for ``/'' charac-
ters; e.g. term_10 for /dev/term/10. The device argument is the name of the character special device associated with the modem.
If there exists an executable file /var/spool/hylafax/etc/resetmodem then that file will be executed upon execution of the wedged script in
an effort to recover the modem.
