Sun Remote System Control (RSC) User's Guide

Redirecting the Console to RSC

Until RSC software is configured, the system console is available as on any normal Sun machine. To enable RSC as the system console device instead, you must log in to the server and enter the following commands at the ok prompt:


ok diag-output-to rsc
ok setenv input-device rsc
ok setenv output-device rsc

These commands take effect after the next server reset. At any time, you can use the following commands to remove RSC as the default console:


ok diag-output-to ttya
ok setenv input-device keyboard
ok setenv output-device screen

These commands take effect after the next server reset. See Chapter 6, Using OpenBoot PROM Features That Support RSC for more information about these OpenBoot PROM features.
