Oracle SPARC T8-1 - Attachment of Devices During Service

Attachment of Devices During Service
Attachment of Devices During Service
During service procedures, you might have to connect devices to the server.
■
For OS support, connect an Ethernet cable to the one of the Ethernet connectors ( NET 0,
NET 1, NET 2, or NET 3).
■
If you plan to interact with the system console directly, you can connect additional external
devices, such as a mouse and keyboard, to the server's USB connectors, and connect a
monitor to the rear DB-15 video connector. For more details on connecting to the video
port, refer to “Identifying Ports” in SPARC T8-1 Server Installation Guide.
■
If you plan to connect to the Oracle ILOM software over the network, connect an Ethernet
cable to the Ethernet port labeled NET MGT.
Note - The SP uses the NET MGT (out-of-band) port by default. You can configure the
SP to share one of the sever's four Ethernet ports instead. The SP uses only the configured
Ethernet port.
■
If you plan to access the Oracle ILOM CLI through the management port, connect a serial
null modem cable to the RJ-45 serial port labeled SER MGT.
■
The USB connectors on the front panel support USB 2.0. The USB connectors on the rear
panel support USB 3.0.
