Hello All,
I'm new to SUN hardware and I'm testing 2 x2100 servers and I don't
understand this SDMC. If I understand correctly it should act as some
sort of mgmt interface, but I don't understand how. I've booted up on
the CD and used util.exe to assign an IP address and
usernames/passwords reboot and now what. I can ping the IP address but
that is it, I person told me I should open my browser and type
http://x.x.x.x but nothing comes back. I can't seem to find any good
documentation on these cards on Sun's site. I would appriciate any
help.

BTW I want to run Windows on these for this test.

Thanks
Craig Dieck

There is documentation at:

http://www.sun.com/products-n-soluti...100/index.html

I don't know what SDMC is, but it's the same as the ILOM card, there is
documentation at:

http://www.sun.com/products-n-soluti...100/index.html

Thanks Gary, but it still does not make much sense the docs for the
4200 ILOM are different than the 2100 SDMC IPMI card. Maybe what I'm
looking for is what the 4200 server has.

Thanks again for your help.

It's SMDC, not SDMC. It doesn't use http (that's ILOM in the 4100/4200),
it uses only IPMI. You need an IPMI client.
