You have several options for managing your server depending on your needs. You might need a tool to manage many servers, or you might need a tool to manage a single server.
Managing many servers
If your server is one of many Oracle x86 and SPARC servers that you want to manage from a single interface, you can use the Oracle Enterprise Ops Center. For information, go to:

Managing a single server
Sun Installation Assistant (SIA) is an application that you can use for initial server configuration . SIA helps you to update firmware (ILOM firmware, BIOS, and RAID controller software) and to automate installation of Linux and Windows operating systems. For more details, refer to the Sun Installation Assistant 2.3 through 2.4 User’s Guide for x64 Servers.
Oracle's Integrated Lights Out Manager (ILOM) is built-in software and hardware that you can use to monitor the status and configuration of your server. For more information, see About the ILOM Software.
