Solaris

x-on/x-off

What commands are you trying? Did you try that
#.
command the Mugin suggested?

On the front panel...you should have a green light but no yellow...is that the case? (Yellow means a hardware problem.)

The term settings are now all correct.

I AM getting something now, I think I was typing the # without the " . " the dot. I can finally get to
SUN Advanced Lights Out Manager.

But it asks for user/passwd. Root does not work!!!!!
Does anyone know of a back-door user/passwd for ALOM?


As for the LED on the front, not even on!! I checked the book and it indicates that means Solaris isn't starting. That might explain why I am not getting video. I guess the drivers don't get a chance to start. Wating on cal from Sun, but any input greatly helpful!

This link will explain what ALOM is.

By the way, the command is #. (not # or #,)
You have to login as admin, and if this is the first time it is used i believe you can just enter the passwd , and then you will be asked to set the passwd. If it has already been set, ask the administrator.

it looks like we're hosed here. the admin/passwd login ginto ALOM isn't working. So i 'll just reinstall the OS.
To boot off the CDROM, it's

boot /CDROM ?

User: admin
Passwd: (blank)

If you want to boot from cdrom type at the ok prompt: boot cdrom
