Sun ALOM

Taken from Sun website...

The ALOM System Controller and ALOM firmware combine the features of RSC and LOM, as well as adding several new features. The ALOM System Controller hardware is embedded in the server. However, ALOM functions completely independently as a separate embedded computer. ALOM firmware is pre-installed by default and is active from the first moment that the system is plugged in.

ALOM 1.6 features include:

• Serial interface (CLI)
• 10 Mb Ethernet interface telnet CLI (10/100Base T for V215/V245/V445)
• Secure Ethernet interface (secure shell CLI)
• Host side interface/admin utility
• Host side monitoring (disks, fans, power, temp, PSU, FRUID, LED, hotplug devices)
• Host control (power, reset)
• Server watchdog XIR: (OS monitor/restart/XIR)
• Self watchdog/restart
• Enhanced events (ALOM events, host events, hotplug devices)
• Logging events to ALOM (including nvram and syslog)
• Logging host console stream output
• Multiple users
• User configurable delivery of events to ALOM CLI, email, and syslog
• Out-of-box functionality
• Optimized boot time
• Hardware environmental monitoring/management

System Requirements

ALOM comes pre-installed on your server. Servers currently supported by ALOM 1.6 are:

• A Sun Fire V125 server
• A Sun Fire V210 server
• A Sun Fire V215 server
• A Sun Fire V240 server
• A Sun Fire V245 server

This is the response from Pak Lah on ISA. About his reply asking journalist to go back to school -- my feeling is that he is arrogant. He is not a humble people as he claims!!!

Long San Temple and Ching Ann Temple

Ching Ann temple is the first temple i visit in taiwan, i believe there must be some sort of 'yuan', and i made a wish to the 'five thousand years old' to have some fortune....hehehe...typical chinese mentality.
