To use OpenBoot with Remote Console, you must set the OpenBoot environment variables input-device and output-device to appropriate values. The default value for these variables is virtual-console. This virtual-console value is the textual stream console that is sent to the ILOM SP. You can change the OpenBoot input-device and output-device settings so that the ILOM SP textual console displays only the Power-On Self-Test (POST) output, but not OpenBoot output, the ok prompt, or the Solaris boot output.
|
The Remote Console, by default, provides boot information culminating in a login prompt in the Remote Serial Console, and in a graphical login window in the Remote Video Console. What you see depends on what value has been set for output-device. The output sources that have to choose from are shown below.
|
Note - If you change the value of the OpenBoot output-device to something other than the default value of virtual-console, you can not use the Remote Serial Console and the ILOM ssh shell to administer Solaris. If this happens, and you want to switch back to the default operation, you must reset both input-device and output-device to their default values. See Resetting the Variables to the Defaults Using ILOM.
Caution - Be careful when setting OpenBoot input and output variables. If you set the variables to devices that are not consistently available, for example, you will not be able to see output or type at the ok prompt when the devices are not available. In this case, you must reset the value of both variables to the default. See “Resetting the Variables to the Defaults Using ILOM” on page 47 for more information. |
At the OpenBoot ok prompt or in Solaris, use one of the following procedures to change the input and output device settings.
