Resetting the Service Processor
How to reset the service processor (SP) of a server node of an Oracle Database
Appliance.
There are times when you might need to reset the service processor (such as after a
firmware update). You can reset the server node SP using Oracle ILOM without
affecting the host OS. However, this action disconnects your current Oracle ILOM
session and will not allow any new sessions to be initiated until the reset has
completed.
