Powering On the Server Module

After the system controller boots, the system controller login prompt is displayed on
the serial console. Use the instructions in this section to log in to the system
controller and to power on the server module.

To Power On the Server Module

1. Log in to the system controller as the default admin user.

2. Press Enter at the password promt.

By default, the server module is shipped with no password for the admin account.
Before you power on the server module, you should set the password with the
password

command.

3. Use the password command to set the admin password.

4. Issue the poweron -c command.

You see an sc> alert message on the system console. This indicates that the system
has reset. After you issue the poweron command, the CPU and memory controllers
initialize, and eventually the OpenBoot™ PROM firmware initializes. After a
number of system messages, you will see the ok prompt.

Installing an Operating System on a
Hard Drive

The basic configuration of the Sun Blade T6300 server module ships with or without
empty hard drives. If you ordered an optional hard drive and want to install the
Solaris OS on the hard drive in slot 0, you must install the operating system from
your network.
