Power On the Host (Oracle ILOM)
This topic describes displaying the host server console output buffers.
There are two console history buffers that can contain up to 1 Mbyte of information. The /HOST/console/history target writes all types of log information. The /HOST/console/bootlog target writes boot information and initialization data into the console buffer until Oracle ILOM is notified by the server that the Oracle Solaris OS is up and running. This buffer is kept until the host is booted again.
Note - You must have Oracle ILOM Administrator level user permission to use this command.
-> set /HOST/console/history property=option [...] -> show /HOST/console/history
where property can be:
line_count – This option accepts a value within the range of 1 to 2048 lines. Specify "" for an unlimited number of lines. The default is all lines.
pause_count – This option accepts a value of 1 to any valid integer or "" for infinite number of lines. The default is not to pause.
start_from – The options are:
end – The last line (most recent) in the buffer (the default).
beginning – The first line in the buffer.
If you type the show /HOST/console/history command without first setting any arguments with the set command, Oracle ILOM displays all lines of the console log, starting from the end.
Note - Timestamps recorded in the console log reflect server time. These timestamps reflect local time, and the Oracle ILOM console log uses UTC (Coordinated Universal Time). The Oracle Solaris OS system time is independent of the Oracle ILOM time.
-> show /HOST/console/bootlog property
where property can be:
line_count – This option accepts a value within the range of 0 to 2048 lines. Specify "0" for an unlimited number of lines. The default is all lines.
pause_count – This option accepts a value of within the range of 0 to 2048 lines. Specify "0" for an unlimited number of lines. The default is not to pause.
start_from – The options are:
end – The last line (most recent) in the buffer (the default).
beginning – The first line in the buffer.
Note - Timestamps in the console log reflect server time. By default, the Oracle ILOM console log uses Greenwich Mean Time (GMT), but you can use the /SP/clock timezone command to the set the SP clock to use other timezones. The Oracle Solaris OS system time is independent of the Oracle ILOM time.
