Hi,
does anyone know what is the default serial console on SF490?
There is one on the SC ALOM-card and one On Board (above the FC-AL Port).
Now I don't know which of one I should use when I first to connect a cable
to the SF 490.

If you want to access ALOM and then the system console, you need to use the
port labelled "Serial MGT". The one marked with 101101 (or similar)
is just a serial port and there is unlikely to be anything listening.

If the ALOM Plus card is installed that's the default unless someone
manually set it to ttya or it's configured with a keyboard and monitor.
You'll need to know the ALOM password. Otherwise turning the key to the diag
position will force output to the onboard serial port and allow you to boot
or install an OS to reset the ALOM password.
