Assign Serial Port Ownership Using the CLI
Assign Serial Port Ownership Using the CLI
Before You Begin
Set up a network connection to the SP before attempting to change the serial port owner to the
host server. If the network is not set up, and you switch the serial port owner to the host server,
you will be unable to connect using the CLI or web interface to change the serial port owner
back to the SP.
To return the serial port owner setting back to the SP, use the network connection to Oracle
ILOM.
1.
Open an SSH session and at the command line log in to the SP Oracle ILOM CLI.
Log in as a user with root or administrator privileges. For example:
ssh root@
ipadress
where ipadress is the IP address of the server SP.
For more information, refer to the Oracle X5 Series Servers Administration Guide at

.
The Oracle ILOM CLI prompt appears:

2. To set the serial port owner to the host, type:
->
set /SP/serial/portsharing owner=host
Note -
The serial port sharing value by default is
owner=SP
.
3. To set the serial port owner back to the SP, type:
->
set /SP/serial/portsharing owner=sp
Note -
If you inadvertently changed ownership of the serial management port (SER MGT)
before setting up a network connection to Oracle ILOM, refer to the Oracle Integrated Lights
Out Manager (ILOM) 3.2 Documentation Library at:
http://www.oracle.com/goto/ilom/
docs
for details about restoring access to the serial management port on your server.
4. To log out of Oracle ILOM, type:
