Default Doesn't POST after LOM host power on

Hi,

I have got a Sunfire v120 and it was working all fine until i rebooted
it.

I am able to to get to the LOM prompt but when i do poweron it stucks
there and doesnt POST.

Any idea what might be wrong? Is it some hardware fault?

From the LOM prompt you could try

lom>bootmode reset_nvram
lom>poweron

or

lom>bootmode diag
lom>poweron

You said earlier that it was OK until you rebooted it. Can you still
login through the ethernet connection?

If so it may be that the connection between the host and lom is goosed.
I'd use the eeprom command to change the console to point to ttyb.

# eeprom input-device=ttyb
# eeprom output-device=ttyb

Yes it was running all fine until i rebooted, it never came back , i
did tried connecting through Ethernet network but the system doesn't
seem too be responding as the booting phase never happened.

Try re-seating the CPU and memory.
