Quick Setup Instructions
1. Unpack the server, and check that you received all of the shipping contents.
2. Place the server in its intended location for verification.
For rackmounting instructions, refer to the instructions included with the rail kit, the service label on the
server, and to the online
Sun SPARC Enterprise T5120 and T5220 Servers Installation Guide
.
3. Connect a serial cable between the server’s SER MGT port (
) and a terminal device.
This connection provides your initial communication with the SP.
The device must be set up to communicate using 9600 baud, 8 bit, no parity, 1 stop bit. A null modem
configuration is needed, meaning the transmit and receive signals are reversed (crossed over) for DTE to
DTE communications. You can use the supplied RJ-45 crossover adapters with a standard RJ-45 cable to
achieve the null modem configuration.
