Chapter 1 Configuring the System Console 15
Switching Between the System
Controller Prompt and the System
Console
The server features two management ports, labeled SER MGT and NET MGT,
located on the server’s rear panel. If the system console is directed to the virtual-
console device (its default configuration), these ports provide access to both the
system console and the ALOM CMT command-line interface (also called the system
controller prompt, see
FIGURE 1-5
).
FIGURE 1-5
Switching between the System Console and the System Controller Prompt
If the system console is configured to use the virtual-console device, when you
connect through one of these ports you can access either the system controller
prompt) or the system console. You can switch between the system controller
prompt and the system console at any time, but you cannot access both at the same
time from a single terminal or shell tool.
