Dear Members,
I was configuring remote console on my Avaya CMS server(SUN Solaris 10) system to test that the modem i configured for remote access is working fine. I followed the Avaya documentation for the same. Unfortunately after redirecting the local console to remote console the modem line was accidently pulled and i lost the session.
Now i cant access the system locally or remotely, locally the monitor is blank and keyboard not detected/working, remotely the modem is not working and i cant configure a new modem..so i cant access remotely..

how can i get the control back locally??? Please help as the system was meant to go live this week and we are in deep trouble....

I suggest that you attach a PC to the ALOM port and login to the console and revert your changes

If that is a problem (no display from the console) then drop back to the ALOM prompt #. and set INPUT/OUTPUT parameters again ..... (with the "set" command) .....

CODE --> options

INPUT/OUTPUT
input-device=keyboard
Input device used at power-on (
keyboard, ttya, or ttyb).
keyboard-click?=false
keyboard click sound
keymap:
For custom keyboards
output-device=screen
Output device used at power-on
(screen,
ttya, or ttyb).
ansi-terminal?=true
controls the behavior of the
terminal emulator.
The value false causes the terminal emulator to stop
interpreting ANSI escape sequences resulting in echoing them
to the output device.
screen-#columns=80
screen-#rows=34
Columns and Rows of display screen
