Launch a Host Serial Console Redirection Session
A host serial console redirection session allows you to connect to the host console using the
Oracle ILOM CLI.
Oracle ILOM enables you to launch multiple host serial console redirection sessions from the
CLI; however, only one host serial console session user (the initial logged-in session user) on
the SP is granted read and write privileges. All other logged-in host serial console session users
on the SP are granted read-only privileges. Read and write session privileges are reassigned
when the session user with full read and write privileges closes their session, and a new serial
session is opened with full read and write privileges.

redirection session:

console.
3.
To terminate the host serial console redirection session, perform the following:
a.
Log out of the host server operating system.
b.
To terminate the connection between the host serial console and Oracle
ILOM, simultaneously press these keys: Escape + (
