Accessing the System Console Through a Graphics Monitor
The SPARC Enterprise T5140 or T5240 server is shipped without a mouse, keyboard,
monitor, or frame buffer for the display of bitmapped graphics. To install a graphics
monitor on the server, you must install a graphics accelerator card into a PCI slot,
and attach a monitor, mouse, and keyboard to the appropriate front or rear USB
ports.
After starting the system, you might need to install the correct software driver for
the PCI card you have installed. For detailed hardware instructions, see
“Accessing
the System Console Through a Local Graphics Monitor” on page 18 .
Note – POST diagnostics cannot display status and error messages to a local
graphics monitor.
Accessing the Service Processor
The following sections describe methods of accessing the service processor.
Using the Serial Management Port
This procedure assumes that the system console uses the serial management and
network management ports (the default configuration).
When you are accessing the system console using a device connected to the serial
management port, you first access the ILOM service processor and its -> prompt.
After connecting to the ILOM service processor, you can switch to the system
console.
For more information about the ILOM service processor, refer to the ILOM user’s
guide and the ILOM supplement for your server.
▼ To Use the Serial Management Port
1. Ensure that the serial port on your connecting device is set to the following
parameters:
■ 9600 baud
■ 8 bits
