2. Ensure that the
/etc/remote
file on the system contains an entry for
hardwire
.
Most releases of Solaris OS software shipped since 1992 contain an
/etc/remote
file with the appropriate
hardwire
entry. However, if the system is running an
older version of Solaris OS software, or if the
/etc/remote
file has been modified,
you might need to edit it. See
for
details.
3. In a shell tool window on the system, type:
The system responds by displaying:
The shell tool is now a Tip window directed to the SPARC Enterprise T2000 server
through the system’s serial port. This connection is established and maintained even
when the SPARC Enterprise T2000 server is completely powered off or just starting
up.
Note –
Use a shell tool or a CDE terminal (such as
dtterm
), not a command tool.
Some Tip commands might not work properly in a command tool window.
Modifying the
/etc/remote
File
This procedure might be necessary if you are accessing the SPARC Enterprise T2000
server using a Tip connection from a system running an older version of the Solaris
OS software. You might also need to perform this procedure if the
/etc/remote
file
on the system has been altered and no longer contains an appropriate
hardwire
entry.
Log in as superuser to the system console of a system that you intend to use to
establish a Tip connection to the SPARC Enterprise T2000 server.
