Quick Setup Instructions

For quick installation and configuration, follow these steps. For more detailed information, refer to the complete online
product documentation set at: http://www.fujitsu.com/sparcenterprise/manual/

Understand the following information before you set up the server for the first time:

■ Choose the best instructions for your situation – These quick setup instructions work for any networking

environment, and require the use of a terminal device for connectivity to a serial port. If you have a networking
environment running DHCP, you can configure your system using the Ethernet management port. To take advantage
of DHCP setup method, refer to the online installation guide instead of these instructions.

■ Set aside sufficient time – Installation times vary, but if you are performing these setup instructions for the first time,

plan to spend about 45 to 75 minutes to complete all of these instructions. Additional time might be required for
installing optional hardware and rackmounting kits.

■ Gather your configuration information – During the configuration, you are prompted for time zone and networking

parameters that are specific to your environment. For a list of information you need, see Step 9.

■ Obtain a terminal device – You configure this rackmountable server through the service processor (SP) using the

built-in serial and network management ports, and not through a graphical interface and keyboard. For more
information about the terminal device, see Step 3.

■ Do not apply power at this time – This system includes a service processor (SP) that is used to configure and boot the

main host server. To properly configure the host server and view SP messages, do not apply AC power to the server
until the SP and host networking connections are made, as described in this guide.

1. Unpack the server, and check that you received all of the shipping contents.

2. Place the server in its intended location for verification.

For rackmounting instructions, refer to the instructions included with the rail kit, the service label on the server, and
to the online SPARC Enterprise T5140 and T5240 Servers Installation Guide.

3. Connect a serial cable between the server’s SER MGT port (

This connection provides your initial communication with the service processor (SP).
The terminal device can be a terminal, a terminal server, or a laptop with terminal emulation software running. The
device must be set up to communicate using 9600 baud, 8 bit, no parity, 1 stop bit. A null modem configuration is
needed, meaning the transmit and receive signals are reversed (crossed over) for DTE to DTE communications. You
can use the supplied RJ-45 crossover adapters with a standard RJ-45 cable to achieve the null modem configuration.

correspond to setup steps.

4. (Optional) Connect an Ethernet cable between the server’s Net MGT port (FIGURE 2) and the network to which
future connections to the SP and host will be made.

After the initial configuration of the system using the SP SER MGT port, communication with the SP and host is
usually performed through this Ethernet interface.

5. Connect an Ethernet cable between one of the server’s NET ports (
will communicate.

6. Plug the power cords into the power supplies and into a power source.

Note - Only one power connection is required for operation. Use two power connections for redundancy.
When power is applied, the SP initializes and power supply LEDs illuminate. After a few minutes, the SP login

prompt appears on the terminal device. The host is not initialized or powered on yet.

7. At the terminal device, log in to the SP as root with a password of changeme.

->

After a brief delay, the SP prompt is displayed (->). At this point, there are many commands you can perform using
the Integrated Lights Out Manager interface.

Additional SP information, such as how to change the password and how to set up the SP network parameters is
available in the online documentation set.

8. Power on the server and redirect the host output to display on the serial terminal device:

-> start /SYS
Are you sure you want to start /SYS (y/n)? y

-> start /SP/console
Are you sure you want to start /SP/CONSOLE (y/n)? y
Serial console started. To stop, type #.
. . .

After you start the SP console, the server initialization takes approximately 20 minutes to complete.

9. When prompted, follow the onscreen instructions and enter the following configuration information.

You will be prompted to confirm the configuration several times, enabling confirmation and changes. If you are not
sure how to respond to a particular value, you can accept the default, and make future changes when the Solaris OS
is running.
