Running ALOM Service-Related Commands

This section describes the ALOM commands that are commonly used for service-
related activities.

Connecting to ALOM

Before you can run ALOM commands, you must connect to the ALOM. There are
several ways to connect to the system controller:

■

Connect an ASCII terminal directly to the serial management port.

■

Use the

telnet

command to connect to ALOM through an Ethernet connection

on the network management port.

■

Connect an external modem to the network management port and dial-in to the
modem.

Note –

Refer to the

Sun Fire T2000 Server Advanced Lights Out Manager (ALOM)

Guide

for instructions on configuring and connecting to ALOM.
