Rebooting the machine did the trick. I can now access the console via
telnet though the internal LAN. However, I am wondering what happens
when for whatever reason RSC does not work (e.g. bad RSC card) and
Solaris is down. How can I bring back the console to the normal serial
port to get access to the machine in this worst-case scenario? I assume
tehre is some power button key press sequence that brings the machine
back to its default behaviour!?
Thanks,
Andreas
