1. Connect to the ALOM serial port.
2. Power down the Server.

Remove the power cords from both power supplies. Wait several seconds for power
to discharge before reinserting the cords.

3. Press the Escape key during ALOM boot when the following text is displayed on
the console:

Boot Sector FLASH CRC Test
Boot Sector FLASH CRC Test, PASSED.


Return to Boot Monitor for Handshake

After pressing the Escape key, the ALOM boot escape menu is printed:

ALOM Menu

e - Erase ALOM NVRAM.
m - Run POST Menu.
R - Reset ALOM.
r - Return to bootmon.
Your selection:

4. Enter e to erase the ALOM NVRAM.

Your selection: e
ALOM NVRAM erased.

ALOM Menu

e - Erase ALOM NVRAM.
m - Run POST Menu.
R - Reset ALOM.
r - Return to bootmon.
Your selection:

5. Enter r to return to the ALOM boot process.

Your selection: r

ALOM POST 1.0
Status = 00007fff

ALOM then boots and resets all NVRAM settings. You are automatically logged on
as user admin with no password and no permissions. All ALOM NVRAM settings
are reset to the factory defaults.
