SP Serial Line Terminal Server
break
Command
Does Not Work (CR 6577528)
This issue is resolved by updating the system firmware to 7.1.6.d or later.
If you use Telnet to connect to the SP serial line with a terminal server (such as the
Cisco ASM series) and try to send a break to the Solaris host, the
break
command
does not work and is ignored by the SP. Use the
break
command from the SP CLI to
send a break to the Solaris host.
The following is sample output of sending a break to the Solaris host from the
ALOM CMT compatibility CLI:
1. Log into the host with the
console
command.
2. Enter #. to return to the host prompt.
3. Enter #. to escape to the SP ALOM CMT compatibility CLI. The escape
sequence is not echoed.
4. Enter the
break
command.
5. Enter #. to return to the SP ALOM CMT compatibility CLI.
The following is sample output of sending a break to the Solaris host from the SP
ILOM CLI:
1. Log into the host with the ILOM console command.
