Operating Systems Solaris Help Interrupting Sparc 5 Boot Post 302959769 by MungoJerry on Thursday 5th of November 2015 09:53:47 PM

While a break can be sent via a Sun keyboard, it can also be sent via a terminal connection for a "headless" system, that is, one without a Sun monitor/keyboard. I read a notice from Sun that indicated the break signal may not be received when the terminal hookup does not support full hardware handshaking - that is, when the serial cable does not have all (required) pins connected. So I'm going to have to check out my cable and null modem to make sure they're sufficient.

NAME
scconf_transp_adap_bge - configure the bge transport adapter DESCRIPTION
Note - Beginning with the Sun Cluster 3.2 release, Sun Cluster software includes an object-oriented command set. Although Sun Cluster software still supports the original command set, Sun Cluster procedural documentation uses only the object-oriented command set. For more infor- mation about the object-oriented command set, see the Intro(1CL) man page. You can configure bge adapters as cluster transport adapters. These adapters can only be used with the dlpi transport type. The bge adapter is VLAN capable. The bge adapter connects to a transport switch or to another bge adapter on a different node. In either case, the connection is made through a transport cable. When a transport switch is used and the endpoints of the transport cable are configured by using the scconf command, the scinstall command, or other tools, you are asked to specify a port name on the transport switch. You can provide any port name, or accept the default, as long as the name is unique for the switch. The default is to set the port name to the node ID hosting the adapter at the other end of the cable. There are no user configurable properties for cluster transport adapters of this type. SEE ALSO
