So if you connect a serial console and power the whole box up from cold (ie, all volts removed and reconnected) can you see the ILOM (a Linux appliance) boot up on the console? Should take quite a long time whilst all the diags run.

What would you think is a reasonable useful lifespan for a Sunfire e2900. I'm not referring to it's performance capabilities as much as I'm referring to the hardware's ability to perform reliably. (2 Replies)

NAME
setupcon - sets up the font and the keyboard on Linux console
SYNOPSIS
setupcon [ option ]... [ variant ... ]
DESCRIPTION
setupcon is a program for fast and easy setup of the font and the keyboard on the Linux console.
OPTIONS
-k, --keyboard-only
Setup the keyboard only, do not setup the font.
-f, --font-only
Setup the font only, do not setup the keyboard.
--force
Do not check whether we are on the console. Notice that you can be forced to hard-reboot your computer if you run setupcon with
this option and you are on a X server.
-v, --verbose
Be more verbose. Use this option if something goes wrong.
--save If you want to use setupcon early in the boot process, it is possible that /usr is not yet mounted and the required data are not
available. This option makes setupcon copy the required data in /etc/console-setup in order to make it available before /usr is
mounted. If you use setupcon early in the boot process, then use this option whenever you change the console configuration.
--save-only
Same like --save, but do not setup the keyboard and the font. This option can be useful if you run setupcon in a X server.
-h, --help
Display usage information.
variant
Specifies which configuration file to use. By default the configuration file of setupcon is /etc/default/console-setup but if you
use e.g. "chukchi" as variant then the configuration file will be /etc/default/console-setup.chukchi. This allows you to have sev-
eral different configurations - for example one for the Chukchi language and another in /etc/default/console-setup for your default
configuration.
BASIC USAGE
Most of the time you invoke setupcon without arguments. Please look at the README file for more information.
