I've a SunFire v210 in our lab for which we require a console connection (no video console). I see the RJ45 and DB9 connections on the back. Tried hooking up a Wyse terminal, 9600,8,N,1, and wasn't able to get a prompt. 'eeprom' shows: ttyb-rts-dtr-off=false ttyb-ignore-cd=true ttya-rts-dtr-off=false ttya-ignore-cd=true ttyb-mode=9600,8,n,1,- ttya-mode=9600,8,n,1,- output-device=ttya input-device=ttya It's been such a long time since I've worked with Solaris (!). I reviewed some of the online docs on sun.com, and wasn't able to get to what I needed. I want to determine if the serial console is enabled (which I believe it is), and I see the comm parameters (above). Thanks for your help but I know I need to cut myself on console cable via COM1.What I do not know how to access my server. The SunFire V120 has two serial ports on. Contents iii Contents Part I Installation and Configuration 1. Introduction 1-1 1.1 Overview of the Sun Fire V120 and Netra 120 Servers 1-2 1.2 Contents of the Ship Kit 1-3. Seems like I should be able to serial in from a Linux system to the DB9 port and get a console, using minicom.? Can someone point me in the right direction.

I see only a 'net mgmt' port, and then the RJ45 and standard serial ports. Unless I'm mistaken about something. The impression I got from the Sun docs was that LOM modifcation or whatever requires the system brought down, which I can't do (production system). I would 'think' that the console is, by default, set to the serial port. The eeprom settings seem to suggest that, but perhaps the SAF has since been modified and ttymon isn't listening. I'm not sure;-) Thanks, Forrest Malcolm wrote: > > Hi > That's the lights out management interface, have a look here; > > > > -- > Cheers Malcolm =B0=BF=B0 (Linux Counter #276890) > SLED 10.0 x86_64 Kernel 2.6.16.27-0.6-smp > up 1 day 19:38, 2 users, load average: 0.16, 0.15, 0.05.

The RJ45 is also a management port, serial in this case.
