    Description

    for ALOM4v is lost or forgotten then the following password recovery steps can be taken to erase/reset the Advanced Lights Out Management(ALOM) NVRAM so
    If the password
    that a user can gain access to ALOM, set a new password and restore the NVRAM settings.

    Steps to Follow

    Note: physical access to the system so that the power cables can be accessed and a serial connection can be made to the system is required for this procedure.
    1. Make a connection to the ALOM serial management port.

    2. Power cycle the system by unplugging the server's power supplies, waiting several seconds and then plugging the power supplies back in.

    3. You should see the ALOM booting on the serial management console. Hit "Esc" (the Escape key) during the ALOM boot, before or at the point: "Return to Boot Monitor for
    Handshake"

    This will cause the system to produce the message: "Return to Boot Monitor for Handshake ESC keypress detected."

    4. ALOM will now enter the "ALOM boot escape menu" and the following will be displayed:

    ALOM <ESC> Menu

    e - Erase ALOM NVRAM.
    m - Run POST Menu.
    R - Reset ALOM.
    r - Return to bootmon.
    Your selection:

    5. To clear out the existing password you must choose 'e' to erase the ALOM NVRAM ( be aware this may take 5 minutes or more to complete ). After using the 'e' option to erase
    the NVRAM choose the 'r' option to resume the ALOM boot. You will automatically be logged in as user 'admin' with no password and no permissions. The NVRAM settings will be
    reset to their factory defaults. Note that since this procedure resets the NVRAM settings to their defaults any customization (such as the ALOM network settings) will need to be
    recreated.

    The above procedure can be adapted for the two Blade products Sun Blade T6300
    Server Module and Netra CP3060 Board, which also use the ALOM4v.

    1. Ensure a working serial connection is made to the serial port at the front of the Blade.

    2. Power cycle the board by powering off the server as per the relevant
    architecture, unplug the Blade from the chassis, wait several seconds and then
    plug the Blade back into the chassis.

    Follow steps 3 to 5 above.
