Reset the Service Processor From the Server Back Panel

If the Oracle ILOM SP is hung and you cannot reset it using the Oracle ILOM web interface or the Oracle ILOM CLI, use the following procedure to reset the SP from the server back panel.

  1. Using a non-conducting stylus, press the Reset SP pinhole button located on the server back panel.

    The stylus should be non-conductive with a diameter no more than 1.5 mm. To depress the pinhole button, the stylus should reach 6.5 mm into the chassis. Care should be taken to not over penetrate into the chassis, or probe the sensitive electrical components near the button.


    Caution

    Caution  -  Using a conductive tool, such as a metal paper clip or graphite pencil, can cause a short that can cause an immediate host power off, and/or circuit damage.
