ILOM to unix host

Hello- On Solaris 10g x86 - I had two IP addresses , one for unix host (connecting through putty) and one for ILOM (connecting through CLI and web). I had to perform some changes in FS sizes etc, did that on unix host and executed command 'init 6' remotely for them to take place. But, the unix host shows error when I try to connect it using putty as 'connection timed out' - I still have access to ilo (web - redirection and cli), do you know IF something could be done remotely so that unix host could be back?

thank you

goto lom and change to console session... fix your network and you are done!

go to lom -> You mean go to ILOM cli prompt?
Change the console session -> means?
fix your network -> How?

Please advice!

The default prompt I get after logging into ILOM is :

Type 'console'

Either wait a few moments for an error or hit enter a couple of times. If it's a network error, just log in and make the correction.

To return to the ILOM prompt, hit #. and you'll be back.

The iLOM doesn't respond to just a console command.
To start the console:
Code:
-> start /SP/console

Please see the output... I have still no success in connecting to unix host.
