Hi everybody,

I'm new to Solaris and Sun hardware. I'm considering buying a Netra X1
server. The guy whom I may buy it from says it's 500 Mhz, but I'm not
sure. How could I get the specs of the server from the LOM
command-line? Thanks for any help.

Not sure how to do it from LOM, but from a root prompt "psrinfo -v"
will give you all you want to know about the CPU(s) and cache.

If you can get to the OpenBoot prompt via the LOM (the "ok" prompt),
then the command "banner" should tell you the most important
information, such as OBP version, RAM size, number of CPUs and type, CPU
speed, MAC address.

Thank you very much. I will put this information to use.

You reall can;t from the lom> menu. However, go ahead and type poweron
and it will then power up the system and will drop you into the OBP
(Open Boot Prom) from there the system will perform a POST (Power on
Selt Test) and depending upon if the auto-boot? parameter is set too,
it may attempt to boot off the default boot device, if that is the case
you will have to send a break to the console. If it is set to false,
then you will be dropped to the OBP 'ok' prompt. From there simply
type, banner. That will give you the OBP version, CPU(s) Speed, MAC
address, HOST ID and installed RAM.
