Changing the Cabling for Oracle ILOM
After configuring the system and performing initial configuration, retain a connection to Oracle Integrated Lights Out Manager (ILOM), located in the controller service processor (SP), for troubleshooting problems that do not otherwise appear in the appliance software.
The following procedure describes how to remove the serial SP connection used for initial configuration and make a network SP connection, which allows for better collection of platform data. Do not remove the serial SP connection if you need it for CLI access.
 | Caution - Failure to configure Oracle ILOM connectivity after initial setup may lead to longer than necessary hardware fault diagnosis and resolution times. |
-
Remove the serial cable attached to the SER MGT port on the rear panel of the controller and to the administrative client.
-
Attach an Ethernet cable from the NET MGT port on the rear panel of the controller to your Ethernet switch.
If clustered controllers, repeat for the second controller.
