Input Power Information and Precautions
The Sun SPARC Enterprise T5140 and T5240 servers are available in the following input power configurations:
Two redundant, hot-swappable AC power supplies
Preparing for Installation 3
Page 15
Two redundant, DC power supplies
Note – Safety agency requirements prohibit manufacturers from changing a product
from AC input to DC input or from DC input to AC input after the product has been removed from the agency approved manufacturing site.
Note – The DC version of the server must be installed in a restricted-access location.
According to the intent of the National Electrical Code, a restricted-access location is an area intended for qualified or trained personnel only and has access controlled by a locking mechanism, such as a key lock or an access card system.
When each power supply is connected to a separate power source, the server continues to operating under the following fault conditions:
A power source failure that removes input power from one of the power supplies.
Failure of one of the power supplies.
Service actions which require removal of one of the power supplies.
Refer to the Sun SPARC Enterprise T5140 and T5240 Servers Site Planning Guide for input power specifications.
Note – Input AC/DC power cables: To avoid missing initialization messages, do not
attach power cables to the power supplies until you have finished connecting the data cables, and have connected the server to a serial terminal or a terminal emulator (PC or workstation). The server goes into Standby mode and the ILOM service processor initializes as soon as the input power cables are connected to the power source.

ESD Precautions
Electronic equipment is susceptible to damage by static electricity. Use a grounded antistatic wriststrap, footstrap, or equivalent safety equipment to prevent electrostatic damage (ESD) when you install or service the servers.
Caution – To protect electronic components from electrostatic damage, which can
permanently disable the system or require repair by service technicians, place components on an antistatic surface, such as an antistatic discharge mat, an antistatic bag, or a disposable antistatic mat. Wear an antistatic grounding strap connected to a metal surface on the chassis when you work on system components.

First Time” on page 41.
8 Sun SPARC Enterprise T5140 and T5240 Servers Installation Guide • December 2010
Page 20
Tip – The serial terminal or a terminal emulator should be connected before you
connect the power cables. As soon as AC power is connected to the system, the service processor immediately powers on and runs diagnostics. Diagnostic test failures will be printed on the serial terminal. For more information, refer to the
Integrated Lights Out Manager Supplement for Sun SPARC Enterprise T5140 and T5240 Servers.
3. Connect the data cables to the server, but do not connect the AC power cable
yet. See “Connecting the Server Cables for Both Servers” on page 34.
4. Connect the AC power cable to the server and examine the display for any error
messages. See “Powering On the System for the First Time” on page 41.
Caution – There is a potential for electric shock if the server and related equipment
are not properly grounded.
Note – The service processor runs on the 3.3V standby voltage. As soon as AC
power is connected to the system, the service processor immediately powers on, runs diagnostics, and initializes the ILOM firmware.
Related Information
“Powering On the System for the First Time” on page 41

Service processor management ports: There are two service processor
management ports for use with the ILOM service processor.
The service processor serial management port (labeled SER MGT) uses an RJ-45
cable and is always available. This port is the default connection to the ILOM service processor.
The service processor network management port (labeled NET MGT) is the
optional connection to the ILOM service processor. This port is not available until you configure network settings for the service processor (through the service processor serial management port). See “Enable the Service Processor
Network Management Port” on page 47.
The service processor network management port uses an RJ-45 cable for a
10/100 BASE-T connection. This port does not support connections to Gigabit networks. See the Sun SPARC Enterprise T5140 and T5240 Servers Overview for more information.
Ethernet ports are labeled NET0, NET1, NET2, and NET3. The Ethernet interfaces
operate at 10 Mbps, 100 Mbps, and 1000 Mbps. The table below shows the transfer rates for the Ethernet ports.
TABLE: Ethernet Connection Transfer Rates
Connection Type IEEE Terminology Transfer Rate
Ethernet 10BASE-T 10 Mbit/sec
Fast Ethernet 100BASE-TX 100 Mbits/sec
Gigabit Ethernet 1000BASE-T 1000 Mbit/sec
TTYA serial port: Use the DB-9 connector with a null modem cable for serial
devices. This port appears as ttya in Solaris OS and OpenBoot messages. This port is not connected to the service processor serial management port.
USB ports: USB ports support hot-plugging. You can connect and disconnect USB
cables and peripheral devices while the system is running, without affecting system operations.
You can only perform USB hot-plug operations while the OS is running. USB
hot-plug operations are not supported when the system ok prompt is displayed or before the system has completed booting.
You can connect up to 126 devices to each of the four USB controllers, for a total
of 504 USB devices per system.
AC power cables: Do not attach power cables to the power supplies until you have
finished connecting the data cables, and have connected the server to a serial terminal or a terminal emulator (PC or workstation). The server goes into Standby mode and the ILOM service processor initializes as soon as the AC power cables are connected to the power source. System messages might be lost after 60 seconds if the server is not connected to a terminal, PC, or workstation.

Slide Rail Assembly Notes for Both Servers
The rackmounting kit has two slide rail assemblies. A slide rail assembly can be installed on either the right or left side of the rack.
Note – The slide rail assemblies are different for the T5140 and T5240 servers. The
removable mounting bracket of the Sun SPARC Enterprise T5140 rail slides 13 in. (33 cm) out of the slide rail, then locks in place. The removable mounting bracket of the Sun SPARC Enterprise T5240 rails slide 14 in. (35.5 cm) before locking.
Each slide rail assembly consists of a three-section slide rail and a removable mounting bracket.

The front, middle, and rear sections form the slide rail. The middle and rear sections
have holes for mounting screws, and adjust to fit rack depths from 24 in. (61 cm) to 36.5 in. (93 cm). The front section can be extended to allow movement of the server out of the rack.
The removable mounting bracket slides 14 in. (35.5 cm) out of the slide rail, then
locks in place. If you unlock the mounting bracket at this point, it slides an additional 12 in. (30 cm) before separating from the slide rail. You can then mount the mounting bracket to the right or left side of the server chassis.
There are a total of five locks in a slide rail assembly. Four are on the mounting
bracket. One lock is on the front section of the slide rail. “Installing the Servers in
a Rack” on page 19 describes the uses of these locks.

Configure the Service Processor Network
Management Port
Note – If your network allows the use of DHCP, this configuration is performed
automatically the first time you boot the system.
Use this procedure only when:
You are unable to use DHCP on your network.
You need to modify the ILOM service processor network management port
settings.
50 Sun SPARC Enterprise T5140 and T5240 Servers Installation Guide • December 2010
Page 62
In this procedure, you connect to the ILOM service processor using the serial management port to manually reconfigure the network management port.
Note – For more information on configuring ILOM, refer to the Integrated Lights Out
Manager Supplement for Sun SPARC Enterprise T5140 and T5240 Servers.
Set these network parameters according to the specific details of your network configuration:
/SP/network state – Specifies whether the service processor is on the network
or not
/SP/network pendingipaddress – IP address of the service processor
/SP/network pendingipgateway – IP address of the gateway for the subnet
/SP/network pendingipnetmask – Netmask for the service processor subnet
/SP/network pendingipdiscovery - Specifies whether the service processor
uses DHCP or static IP address assignment
/SP/network commitpending - Commits the service processor to use the
pending settings
Configure these parameters with the set command. The usage is as follows:
set target property=value where /SP/network is the target and pendingipaddress=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx, for example, is the property=value.
1. Configure the service processor using information from your network administrator.
Your choices are:
dhcp - Set up the network connection with a dynamically created IP
configuration.
static - Set up the network connection with a static IP configuration.
a. If you choose to use a dynamically created IP address (use DHCP to retrieve
the network setting), set pendingipdiscovery to dhcp.
-> set /SP/network pendingipdiscovery=dhcp Set 'pendingipdiscovery' to 'dhcp'
b. If you choose to configure a static IP configuration, set the parameters
pendingipdiscovery, pendingipaddress, pendingipgateway, and pendingipnetmask as follows.
i. Set the service processor to accept a static IP address.
-> set /SP/network pendingipdiscovery=static Set 'pendingipdiscovery' to 'static'
Powering On the System 51
Page 63
ii. Set the IP address for the service processor.
-> set /SP/network pendingipaddress=service-processor-IPaddr Set 'pendingipaddress' to 'service-processor-IPaddr'
iii. Set the IP address for the service processor gateway.
-> set /SP/network pendingipgateway=gateway-IPaddr
Set 'pendingipgateway' to 'gateway-IPaddr'
iv. Set the netmask for the service processor.
-> set /SP/network pendingipnetmask=255.255.255.0
Set 'pendingipnetmask' to '255.255.255.0'
This example uses 255.255.255.0 to set the netmask. Your network environment subnet might require a different netmask. Use a netmask number most appropriate to your environment.
2. Use the show /SP/network command to verify that the parameters were set correctly.
For example:
-> show /SP/network /SP/network Targets: Properties: commitpending = (Cannot show property) dhcp_server_ip = xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx ipaddress = xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx ipdiscovery = dhcp ipgateway = xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx ipnetmask = 255.255.252.0 macaddress = 00:14:4F:3F:8C:AF pendingipaddress = xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx pendingipdiscovery = static pendingipgateway = xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx pendingipnetmask = 255.255.255.0 state = enabled Commands: cd set show
->
52 Sun SPARC Enterprise T5140 and T5240 Servers Installation Guide • December 2010
Page 64
Note – After setting the configuration parameters, you must enter the set
/SP/network commitpending=true command for the new values to take affect.
3. Commit the changes to the service processor network parameters.
-> set /SP/network commitpending=true
Set 'commitpending' to 'true'
Note – You can type the show /SP/network command again (after performing the
set /SP/network commitpending=true command) to verify that the
parameters have been updated.

Selecting a Boot Device
This section provides instructions on selecting a boot device.
“Boot Device Selection Overview” on page 67
“Select a Boot Device” on page 68
Boot Device Selection Overview
The boot device is specified by the setting of an OpenBoot configuration variable called boot-device. The default setting of this variable is disk net. Because of this setting, the firmware first attempts to boot from the system hard drive, and if that fails, from the on-board NET0 Gigabit Ethernet interface.
This procedure assumes that you are familiar with the OpenBoot firmware and that you know how to enter the OpenBoot environment. For more information, see the Sun SPARC Enterprise T5140 and T5240 Servers Administration Guide.
Note – The serial management port on the ILOM card is preconfigured as the default
system console port. For more information, see the Sun SPARC Enterprise T5140 and T5240 Servers Overview.
If you want to boot from a network, you must connect the network interface to the network.

disk0 – Specifies internal drive 0
disk1 – Specifies internal drive 1
disk2 – Specifies internal drive 2
disk3 – Specifies internal drive 3
net, net0, net1, net2, net3 – Specifies the network interfaces
full path name – Specifies the device or network interface by its full path name
Note – The Solaris OS modifies the boot-device variable to its full path name, not
the alias name. If you choose a nondefault boot-device variable, the Solaris OS specifies the full device path of the boot device.
Note – You can specify the name of the program to be booted as well as the way the
boot program operates. For more information, refer to the OpenBoot Command Reference Manual for your specific Solaris OS release.
If you want to specify a network interface other than an on-board Ethernet interface as the default boot device, you can determine the full path name of each interface by typing either of the following commands:
ok show-devs ok show-nets
The show-devs command lists the system devices and displays the full path name of each PCI device.

Slide Rail Assembly Notes for the Express Rail Rackmounting Kit
The express rail rackmounting kit installs quickly, and does not require mounting screws or nuts. The kit and the installation procedures are the same for both the Sun SPARC Enterprise T5140 and T5240 servers.
Note – The illustrations used to support the procedure description show a 2U server
as an example.
Note – References to left and right are from your viewpoint as you face either the
front or the rear of the system.
Note – If your rackmounting kit came with its own instructions, use the instructions
in your rackmounting kit instead of the instructions in this section. After performing the server installation, proceed to “Powering On the System” on page 41 for first-time power on.

Page 81
The express rail rackmounting kit has two slide rail assemblies. A slide rail assembly can be installed on either the right or left side of the rack.
Each slide rail assembly consists of a three-section slide rail and a removable mounting bracket.
FIGURE: Sections of the Express Rail Slide Rail Assembly
Figure Legend
1 Mounting bracket
2 Front section
3 Middle section
4 Rear section
The front, middle, and rear sections form the slide rail. The middle and rear sections
have holes for mounting and adjust to fit rack depths from 24 in. (61 cm) to 36.5 in. (93 cm). The front section can be extended to allow movement of the server out of the rack.
The removable mounting bracket slides 14.5 in. (37 cm) out of the slide rail, then
locks in place. If you unlock the mounting bracket at this point, it slides an additional 14.5 in. (37 cm) before separating from the slide rail. You can then mount the mounting bracket to the right or left side of the server chassis.
There are six locks in a slide rail assembly. Four are on the mounting bracket. Two
locks are on the slide rail.
