ILOM Overview

The ILOM service processor runs independently of the server and regardless of the
system power state as long as AC power is connected to the system. When you
connect your server to AC power, the ILOM service processor immediately starts up,
and begins monitoring the system. All environmental monitoring and control is
handled by ILOM

The -> prompt indicates that you are interacting with the ILOM service processor
directly. This prompt is the first prompt you see when you log in to the system
through the serial management port or network management port, regardless of the
host’s power state.

You can also access the ILOM service processor prompt (->) from the OpenBoot ok
prompt, or from the Solaris # or % prompt, provided the system console is configured
to be accessible through the serial management and network management ports.

The ILOM service processor supports a total of five concurrent sessions per server,
four SSH connections available through the network management port and one
connection available through the serial management port.
