this document is only for T1000 and T2000 servers using "lights out management" there is a "showfru" command which can display out the server partnumber and serial number. According to the document and I also checked briefly from sunsolve, in lights out mode I think you are in NVram mode where editing NVRAM settings are possible. Be very very careful.
To use lights out I heard you need to turn the power-key to something, but I only heard and I'm not really sure so please check with sun or your vendor to confirm. But then again if you had to physically be there at the server to switch the key you might as well peek behind the server to look for the serial number.
I have never used lights out and don't intend to. If you screw up your server NVRAM settings and cannot boot up please don't blame me.
You are confusing aLOM and iLOM with XSCF, which is the out-of-band that comes with the M-series servers. This is Fujitsu technology. With XSCF, when you first power on the server and first log into the the XSCF, you need to physically turn the key to one position, hit enter, then turn it back to the first position, hit enter again. You don't need to turn anything with aLOM or iLOM, as none of the T-series servers have keys.
