After switching the facility circuit breakers on, one of the two SPs will assume the Active SP role, while the other SP assumes the Standby SP role. To continue with the installation, log in to the Oracle ILOM firmware through a serial connection to the Active SP.
See:
While both terminals display Oracle ILOM login prompts, the terminal connected to the Active SP displays system status messages while the Oracle ILOM firmware initializes. The following example system status messages are from a SPARC M7-16 server.

The server includes a root user account that you use to log in to the Oracle ILOM software initially. This account has administrative privileges (read and write) for all Oracle ILOM features, functions, and commands.

-> show /SP/redundancy status status = Active
If the command displays status = Active, you are logged in to the Active SP.
If the command displays status = Standby, you are logged in to the Standby SP.
Type exit to log out of the Standby SP, and then log in to the Active SP using the other terminal or terminal emulator.
If the command displays status = Standalone, you are logged in to the Active SP, but the Standby SP has failed to respond or has failed to join the network.
Refer to Servicing SPs in SPARC M8 and SPARC M7 Servers Service Manual for instructions on replacing the failed SP.
