sun solaris goes down when it console is taken out 1

[boon82]

Hi all,

My Sun server is connected to my pc console via my PC COM port, so that i can console to my Sun using PC HyperTerminal without any monitor being attached to the Sun server. I am facing a problem here. When i take out the console cable, the Sun will go down to ok prompt. May I know what is the reason? Thank you for advice. Have a nice day


Regards,
Boon

I thought it will go down when you ENTER a cable, but I might be wrong...

On a "larger" machine you just switch the key to the LOCK position
on machines without keyswitch you need to disable this in OBP (I try to find a procedure in sunsolve)
