Sol10 on primepower 850

I've got a console that seems to be hung. all other services (ip, etc) work perfectly. in fact, its still in production... we just don't have console access. so i there are two consoles on this guy.. scfc0 and scfc1. using iompadm from fujitsu, this is what i got:

Code:

# ./iompadm -c FJSVscf3 info /dev/FJSVhwr/fiomp/mscf0
IOMP: /dev/FJSVhwr/fiomp/mscf0
Element:
        /dev/FJSVhwr/scfc0      online  active  block   "Good"
        /dev/FJSVhwr/scfc1      online  standby block   "Good"
Node:
        /dev/FJSVhwr/pwrctl
        /dev/FJSVhwr/pwrctl2
        /dev/FJSVhwr/rcictl
        /dev/FJSVhwr/rcictl2
        /dev/FJSVhwr/rasctl
        /dev/FJSVhwr/rasctl2
Function:
        MPmode=false
        AutoPath=true
        Block=true
        NeedSync=false

so i wanted to manually fail over to the 'standby' console so i issue the following

Code:

# ./iompadm -c FJSVscf3 start /dev/FJSVhwr/fiomp/mscf0 /dev/FJSVhwr/scfc0

basically, it never fails over... another status/info issued and it still shows scfc0 as the active console. has anyone work on this and successfully failed the console over to the standby? is it possible? does it only work off a reboot for fail over ??

cvc(7D) 							      Devices								   cvc(7D)

NAME

       cvc - virtual console driver

DESCRIPTION

       The  cvc  virtual  console  driver  is a STREAMS-based pseudo driver that supports the network console. The cvc driver interfaces with con-
       sole(7D).

       Logically, the  cvc driver sits below the  console driver. It redirects console output to the cvcredir(7D) driver if a network console con-
       nection is active. If a network console connection is not active, it redirects console output to an internal hardware interface.

       The cvc driver receives console input from  cvcredir and internal hardware and passes it to the process associated with /dev/console.

NOTES

       The   cvc facility supersedes the SunOS wscons(7D) facility, which should  not be used in conjunction with  cvc. The  wscons driver is use-
       ful for systems with directly attached consoles (frame buffers and keyboards), but is not useful with platforms using cvc,  which  have	no
       local keyboard or frame buffer.
