Sun Management Center 4.0 Release Notes

Java Console Should be Started in the Foreground for the First Time (6618460)

When the Java Console is started for the first time on a Solaris or Linux machine using the es-start -c command, the script queries the user whether to launch the Product Registration Client. The script then waits for user input. The command does not wait for user input when used the second time onward. If the console is started in the background, the script will wait in the background for user input and the console will fail to start.

Workaround: Start the Java Console in the foreground for the first time. If the console has been started in the background, use the fg command to bring it to the foreground.
