Configuring the Preinstalled Solaris
Operating System
This chapter walks you through the steps for configuring the Solaris Operating
System (OS) that has been preinstalled on your Sun Fire X4500 Server.
Note – Unlike with SPARC
®
systems, you will not see most of the output of the pre-
installed Solaris 10 image through a monitor when you power on the server. You will
see the BIOS Power-On Self Test (POST) and other boot information output.
The server ships with its console redirected to the serial port. For more information,
see “To Connect to the Server Using a Terminal Program” on page 8 .
You can choose an option to send the output to VGA (video port). If you want to use
the video port, see
“To Redirect the Console Output to the Video Port (Optional)” on
page 8 .
