When power is applied, the SP initializes and power supply LEDs illuminate. After a few minutes, the SP
login prompt appears on the terminal device. Note that the host is not initialized or powered on yet.
7. At the terminal device, log in to the SP as root with a password of changeme.

In the future, when you log in to the admin account, you use the ALOM CMT compatibility command set. In

Refer to
TABLE 1 for the list of configuration information and your entries. You will be prompted to confirm
the configuration several times, enabling confirmation and changes. If you are not sure how to respond to a

When the configuration menus are completed, the server reboots and displays the Solaris login prompt.
