The server is Sparc Enterprise T5440 running Solaris 10.
I have not had to reboot the windows machine since I posted. For now my solution is to avoid rebooting the windows machine. I will also look into setting up the management port, but if the existence of a serial connection (cable) itself somehow sends break signal to the server, it is a concern. I am also wondering if windows 10 somehow causes this (sends some signal to serial port during reboot).
Thank you all for your comments.
