Hard Disk Array

The Sun Fire X4500 has a 48 disk array. It is hot swappable, and the systems are racked to allow them to be fully extended out on their rails while remaining powered on with network connectivity.

The HDD 0 and 1 are the OS drives, no other drives show in the BIOS during post.


Lights Out Management

The Sun X4500 uses iLOM.

The standard administrative account is root and the default password is changeme.

Common actions

Changing the root password

set /SP/users/root password=password

Serial console

start /SP/console

Power cycle

Reset:

reset /SYS

Power Off:

stop /SYS

Power On:

start /SYS


End the session with Esc-(

Setting an IP address for the network port of LOM

Login to the LOM over serial and run the following:

cd /SP/network 
set pendingipaddress=ipaddress
set pendingipnetmask=255.255.0.0
set pendingipgateway=10.1.0.1
set pendingipdiscovery=static
set commitpending=true

Once that is done, you should be able to connect over the management IP if it is plugged into the management network.
