Periodically record the set of FRUs installed in the server.
This information is kept in nonvolatile storage. You can inspect the log to
determine if the hardware components have been changed.
■
Store traffic sent to the system console in nonvolatile storage.
■
Store the event log in nonvolatile storage.
■
Support the
scadm
command to display the ALOM FRU information log, system
console log, and log history.
■
Periodically log system environmental data (including, temperature and power
supply information) to the dynamic region of the FRU ID PROMs.
You can retrieve this information by using the
showfru
command or the
prtfru
command.
■
Support an electronically-readable chassis serial number.
The serial number is stored in nonvolatile storage during manufacturing. ALOM
can display this value and provide a service-mode command that can change it, if
necessary. The
prtdiag
command can also display this value.
■
Maintain the installation information in the dynamic portion of the FRU ID
PROMs.
The installation information includes the location of FRUs within the chassis, as
well as the identification of the chassis and FRU.
Setting the
admin
Password
When you switch to the ALOM prompt after initial power on, you are logged in as
the
admin
user and prompted to set a password. You must set this password in
order to execute certain commands.
If you are prompted to do so, set a password for the
admin
user.
The password must:
■
Contain at least two alphabetic characters.
■
Contain at least one numeric or one special character.
■
Be at least six characters long.
After the password is set, the
admin
user has full permissions and can execute all
ALOM CLI commands.
