104 Sun Fire X4170, X4270, and X4275 Servers Installation Guide • December 2009
Before You Begin
Before you begin configuring the preinstalled OpenSolaris OS, do the following:
■ Configure an IP address for the server SP. For details, see “Connecting to the
ILOM Service Processor for the First Time” on page 78.
■ Ensure that main power has been applied to the server. For more information, see
“Applying Main Power to the Server for the First Time” on page 84.
■ Gather the information that you will need for the configuration, as listed in
“Installation Worksheet” on page 104. Note that default values are indicated by
an asterisk (*).
Note – To identify the MAC address for a server or other chassis components, see
the Customer Information Sheet (shipped with the component), or inspect the
printed MAC address label attached to the server or chassis component.
■ The server ships with its console redirected to the serial port. You can choose an
option to send the output to VGA (video port). For more information, see
“(Optional) Redirect the Console Output to the Video Port” on page 111.
Installation Worksheet
Use the worksheet in TABLE 6-1 to gather the information that you need to configure
the preinstalled OpenSolaris OS. You only need to collect the information that
applies to your application of the system.
