Applies to:

Sun Fire E6900 Server
All Platforms

Symptoms

Using:

   telnet> send break

on the Sun Fire[TM] platform does not always work.

Cause

There are a few reasons this may not work:


Cause 1:   We may not be telneting directly to the SC.

Cause 2:   Re-sizing a dtterm window sometimes breaks this "send break" functionality.

Cause 3:   When accessing the SC through a Terminal Server or different terminal
                  software the break sequence may be different.

Solution

Solution 1:

   When you telnet to another system first then   from there to the SC (2 telnet sessions).
   The send break command stops at the first machine. ]
   To get around this you will have to perform the following steps from the telnet prompt:

           telnet> send esc

           telnet> send break

   NOTE: If you have more than 2 telnet sessions you will need to use send esc for each additional session that is open for this to work.

Solution 2:

   Try one of the following:


Solution 3:

   In case you' re using different terminal software you may want to try some of the
   break sequences below:
