9.1 Monitoring the System From Solaris
To use the Lights-Out Management (LOM) facilities either remotely or locally, you
need a terminal connection to the Serial A/LOM port on the server (see Chapter 6).
There are two ways of interrogating the LOM device or of sending it commands to
perform.
■ One is by executing LOM commands from the lom> shell prompt. For
information about how to do this, see Chapter 8.
■ The other is by executing LOM-specific Solaris commands from the Solaris
prompt. These commands are described in this chapter.
The Solaris commands described in this section are all available from the main
Solaris # prompt. They run a utility called /usr/sbin/lom.
Where appropriate, the command lines given in this section are accompanied by
typical output from the commands.
