To Access the System Console Through the Tip Connection
1. Connect the RJ-45 serial cable and, if required, the DB9 or DB25 adapter
provided.
The cable and adapter connect between another system’s serial port (typically
ttyb
) and the serial management port on the back panel of the SPARC
Enterprise T5140 or T5240 server.
2. Ensure that the /etc/remote file on the other system contains an entry for
hardwire
.
Most releases of Solaris OS software shipped since 1992 contain an /etc/remote
file with the appropriate hardwire entry. However, if the system is running an
older version of Solaris OS software, or if the /etc/remote file has been
modified, you might need to edit it. See
“Modifying the /etc/remote File” on
for details.
