Can I use a "Secure Web Console" to a SUN box?

Fredric Vådegård — Tue, 09 Mar 2004 08:16:40 GMT

Do you know how I can access a console on a Sun box via a HP Secure Web Console? I have done it via tip (tip hardwire), but would like to use a web console instead.

I think its a normal serial console link. I use a crosscable between my laptop and both a SUN or a HP box. So seting it up normal will probable get you SUN console to work.
I never tested it.

Fredric,

Check this first.. A SUN can mis-interpet the disconnecting of the console with a stop-a ( and the server will halt then).

I doubt it would be supported by Sun, but if you connect it to the com port and get it working be sure to put the key in the secure position so that a disconnect won't halt (stop a) the server.

Dave.

Thank you all for your replies. I have solved the problem. It works, I forgot to remove the keyboard from the server.
