Full Discussion: start /SP/console hangs in X4500
Operating Systems Solaris start /SP/console hangs in X4500 Post 302258679 by DukeNuke2 on Saturday 15th of November 2008 10:50:09 AM

as allready mentioned above:

X systems DON'T have a serial console! you can try this as long as you like... cause there is NO serial console they invented the virtual kvm switch in the X systems hardware. all you need is a browser with access to the ilom.

i haven't tried to disable the gdm/cde displaymanager and check if i have a serial console after that. but you can try this out...
look with "svcs -a | grep -i login" for the smf that you need to disable and afterwards disable it with "svcadm disable smf".
