Most Oracle/Sun x86 based servers come with Integrated Lights Out Management (ILOM). This allows you full remote control of the server if you need it, including KVM. The following is true for the X4100 and X4200 at least. In order to use it, you need to do the following:

1. Connect to the serial port with your favourite terminal emulator, with these settings:

8N1: eight data bits, no parity, one stop bit
9600 baud
Disable hardware flow control (CTS/RTS)
Disable software flow control (XON/XOFF)

2. You should see the command prompt. Enter the default username and password:

Username: root
Password: changeme

3. Reset the root password:

set /SP/users/root password

Follow the prompts.
