Sun Fire X4470 Server

Getting Started Guide

▼Install Optional Components

Before installing the server into a rack, you must first install any optional components that you ordered with the

server, and that were not factory installed. Refer to the Sun Fire X4470 Server Service Manual for instructions on

installing optional components.

▼Mount the System in a Rack

For rackmounting instructions, refer to the documents included with the rail kit, the service label on the server,

and to the Sun Fire X4470 Server Installation Guide.

▼Connect the Cables

1. Connect an Ethernet cable to the Gigabit Ethernet (NET) connectors as needed for OS support.

2. (Optional) If you plan to interact with the system console directly, connect any external devices, such as a

mouse and keyboard, to the server’s USB connectors, and/or a monitor to the DB-15 video connector.

3. If you plan to connect to the Oracle Integrated Lights Out Manager (ILOM) software over the network,

connect an Ethernet cable to the Ethernet port labeled NET MGT.

4. If you plan to access the Oracle ILOM command-line interface (CLI) using the serial management port,

connect a serial null modem cable to the RJ-45 serial port labeled SER MGT.

▼Connect the Power Cords

1. Connect two grounded server power cords to grounded electrical outlets.

2. Connect the two server power cords to the AC connectors on the back panel of the server.

Note – By default, only a two-CPU system will operate from low-line (100 to 127 Volt) AC sources. The system

requires high-line (200 to 240 Volt) AC sources to turn on main power of a four-CPU system.

When power is connected, the server boots into standby power mode. The SP OK/Fault LED flashes while

Oracle ILOM is starting, and the main Power/OK LED remains off until the service processor (SP) is ready for

system log in. After a few minutes, the main Power/OK LED slowly flashes the standby pattern, indicating the

SP is ready for use. Note that the server is not initialized or powered on yet.

Do not apply main power to the rest of the server until you are ready to install an operating system.

Connecting to Oracle ILOM

You can use the Oracle Integrated Lights Out Manager (ILOM) to start, boot, and manage the server. There are

two methods for connecting to Oracle ILOM:

■

Connect to Oracle ILOM using a serial terminal connection (SER MGT port; method provided below)

■Connect to Oracle ILOM using an Ethernet connection (NET MGT port)

To connect via an Ethernet connection, you must know the IP address of the server SP. In a typical configuration,

you will accept the IP address assigned by the DHCP server or IPv6 router. If you are not using DHCP or an

IPv6 router, or if you need to assign the server SP a static IP address for any other reason, refer to the Oracle

Integrated Lights Out Manager (ILOM) 3.0 Documentation Collection for instructions.

▼Connect to Oracle ILOM Using a Serial Connection

1. Connect a terminal device to the server. Set the terminal device to communicate using 9600 baud, 8 bit, no

parity, 1 stop bit. A null modem connection is needed.

2. Press Enter on the terminal device to create a connection between the terminal device and the Oracle

ILOM SP.

The Oracle ILOM login prompt appears.

3. Log in to the Oracle ILOM SP (CLI) using the root user account and the root password, changeme.

The command-line interface (CLI) prompt appears (->). You can now start, configure, and manage the server

using Oracle ILOM.

▼Apply Main Power to the Server

Caution – Do not operate the server without all fans, component heatsinks, air baffles, and the cover

installed. Severe damage to server components can occur if the server is operated without adequate

cooling mechanisms.

1. Verify that the power cords have been connected (FIGURE 1) and that the main Power/OK LED is slowly

flashing the standby pattern.

2. Press and release the recessed Power button on the front panel.

When main power is applied to the server, the main Power/OK LED flashes once per second to indicate the

system is booting. The main Power/OK LED is steady green when system is loading an operating system.

Note – When the server powers on, the power-on self-test (POST) can take several minutes to complete.

3. Continue with initial software setup tasks, as described in the Sun Fire X4470 Server Installation Guide.

▼Update Firmware

It is highly recommended that you use the Oracle Hardware Installation Assistant to upgrade system BIOS and

Oracle Integrated Lights Out Manager (ILOM) firmware. For the latest Oracle Hardware Installation Assistant,

as well as firmware, tools and drivers, and related software, go to: http://support.oracle.com

For more information about Oracle Hardware Installation Assistant, go to the documentation site at:

http://www.oracle.com/pls/topic/lookup?ctx=hia&id=homepage

To upgrade system BIOS and Oracle ILOM firmware without using the Oracle Hardware Installation Assistant,

refer to the Oracle ILOM documentation for the version of Oracle ILOM supported for your server at:

http://www.oracle.com/pls/topic/lookup?ctx=E19860-01&id=homepage

All firmware and drivers are on the Tools and Drivers DVD, which is shipped in the Documentation and Media

Kit. You also can download the software on the Tools and Drivers DVD from the Oracle download site:

http://support.oracle.com

▼Set Up the Platform Operating System and Driver Software

You can configure the preinstalled operating system (OS), or install a supported operating system for your

server. It is highly recommended that you use the Oracle Hardware Installation Assistant to update firmware

(regardless of OS) and to install a Linux or Windows OS. Refer to the following table for more OS installation

information.

Password: changeme

Service and Technical Support

If you need to service your system, you might be asked for your hardware serial number. To find the serial

number of your system, use the Oracle ILOM command show /SYS, or see your Service Manual for

information about where to find the serial number label on your system.
