Log In to Oracle ILOM Using a Local Serial Connection

This procedure does not require that you know the IP address of the server service processor (SP). It does require that you log in to an Oracle ILOM account with administrator privileges.


Note -  The default Oracle ILOM administrator account is root and its password is changeme. If this default account has been changed, contact your system administrator for an Oracle ILOM user account with administrator privileges.
  1. Connect a terminal or a laptop with terminal software and a connection to the SER MGT port.

    For details, see Cabling the Server.

  2. Configure the following terminal settings:
    • 8N1: eight data bits, no parity, one stop bit
    • 9600 baud
    • Disable hardware flow control (CTS/RTS)
  3. Press Enter to establish a connection between your serial console and Oracle ILOM.

    A login prompt to Oracle ILOM appears.

  4. Log in to the Oracle ILOM command-line interface (CLI) using an Administrator account.

    Oracle ILOM displays a default command prompt (->), indicating that you have successfully logged in to Oracle ILOM.
