Configuring the Pre-installed
Solaris 10 Operating System
This chapter explains the steps for configuring the Solaris ™ 10 Operating System
(OS) that has been pre-installed on your server. The factory-installed version is
Solaris 10 6/06 or later.
Note – Unlike with SPARC ® systems, you will not see the output of the pre-
installed Solaris 10 image through a monitor when you power on the server. The
output of the pre-installed image is directed to a serial console instead of a monitor
that is attached to the server.
Before You Begin
Before you begin configuring the pre-installed OS, you need to do the following:
1. Perform initial configuration of the server’s Integrated Lights Out Manager
(ILOM) Service Processor (SP) and determine the server’s network settings, as
described in
“Connecting to the ILOM Service Processor” on page 21 .
2. Gather the information that you will need for the configuration, as listed in
“Installation Worksheet” on page 31 .
Installation Worksheet
Use the worksheet in TABLE 1 to gather the information that you need to configure
the pre-installed Solaris 10 OS. You only need to collect the information that applies
to your application of the system.
