Powering on the servers

Procedure 29 Powering on the servers

At the server,

1

Turn power on to the server.

2

If the system boots up, log into the server as root.

3

Type init 0 [Enter].

This will bring you to the boot (>ok) prompt. If the system does
not have Solaris installed, it will power up to the >ok prompt. You
may have to send a break to get the >ok prompt. The servers will
more than likely boot up to a Solaris System Identification
screen. Do not answer those questions. Send a break to get to
the >ok prompt so you can then boot from the CD-ROM.

Procedure 30 Power on to get the >ok prompt

At the management pc,

1

If you are using PuTTY, click the program icon in the upper left
PuTTY title bar to access PuTTY’s pull-down menu.

2

Mouse over the telnet command menu item to access additional
drop-down menu options.

3

Select Break to send the break command from the PuTTY
session.

ATTENTION

Do not have any bootp servers on the same subnet of the system.
If there is such a server, disconnect the LAN interface cable from
the system subnet.
