I'd suggest looking at the baud rate and parity setting of the ILOM and/or your serial terminal device. The output that you posted typically looks like either a baud rate or parity bit mismatch.

I don't know this server hardware but perhaps when you switch from talking to the console to talking to the ILOM the baud rate or parity bit changes.

Once connected to the ILOM try a different baud rate and/or parity setting on your serial device to see if you can suddenly make sense of it.

NAME
tcgetattr(), tcsetattr() - control tty device SYNOPSIS
DESCRIPTION
gets the parameters associated with fildes and stores them in the termios structure referenced by termios_p. If the terminal device does not support split baud rates, the input baud rate stored in the termios structure is zero. This function is allowed from a background process (see termio(7)). However, the terminal attributes can be subsequently changed by a foreground process. sets the parameters associated with fildes (unless support is required from underlying hardware that is not available) from the termios structure referenced by termios_p as follows: o If optional_actions is the change is immediate. o If optional_actions is the change occurs after all output written to fildes is transmitted. o If optional_actions is the change occurs after all output written to fildes is transmitted, and all input that has been received but not read is discarded. RETURN VALUE
Upon successful completion, a value of zero is returned. Otherwise, a value of -1 is returned and is set to indicate the error. ERRORS
and fail if any of the following conditions are encountered: [EBADF] fildes is not a valid file descriptor. [EINVAL] The optional_actions argument is not a proper value or no part of a request could be performed. [ENOTTY] The file associated with fildes is not a terminal. WARNINGS
will attempt to perform as much of the request as possible. However, the hardware being used may not support all possible c_cflag values. If any part of the request can be performed, those values will be set, any values not supported by the hardware will be ignored, and will complete successfully. If no part of the request can be performed, will fail and set to [EINVAL]. For any hardware that does not support separate input and output baud rates, an attempt to set different input and output baud rates does not affect either baud rate. always returns the actual values set in hardware. For any hardware that does not support separate input and output baud rates, returns zero for the input baud rate. SEE ALSO
