Reset a SP

Language:

On these servers, you can reset all of the SPs. However, you should have to reset only the Active SP.

You must have the reset role (r). You must have the admin role (a) to set the reset_to_defaults property.

Log in to Oracle ILOM.
See Log In to Oracle ILOM (CLI).

Reset the Active SP:

To reset the Active SP without changing the system configuration, type:
```
-> reset /SP
Are you sure you want to reset /SP (y/n)? y
Performing reset on /SP

->
```
Note - This command will reset all of the SPs and SPMs. If the Active SP does not reset successfully, use the -f|force option.

To change the reset_to_defaults setting and reset the Active SP, type:

-> set /SP reset_to_defaults=value
-> reset /SP
Are you sure you want to reset /SP (y/n)? y
Performing reset on /SP

->

all – Resets all of the Oracle ILOM configuration data to the default settings at the next SP reset. This action does not erase the log file entries.
factory – Resets all of the Oracle ILOM configuration data to the default settings, and erases all log files at the next SP reset.
none – (Default) Resets the SP for normal operation while using the current configurations. Use the none option to cancel a pending reset_to_defaults operation (all or factory) before the next SP reset.

Caution - Under normal conditions, you should not have to reset the SP to the default settings. If you use the all or factory values, all of the IP, subnet, and netmask addresses for the SPs and hosts are removed. You will need to establish a network connection with the serial management port to restore these addresses. This operation also removes all boot aliases (disk and net) that you created. You will need to re-create these aliases.

Note - If the Active SP does not reset successfully, use the -f|force option.
