C-12 AlphaServer 4000/4100 Service Manual
C.1.3.12 reset
The reset command requests the RCM module to perform a hardware reset. It is
functionally equivalent to pressing the Reset button on the system operator control
panel.
RCM>reset
Focus returned to COM port
The following events occur when the reset command is executed:
• The system restarts and the system console firmware reinitializes.
• The console exits RCM command mode and reconnects the user’s terminal to
the server’s COM1 serial port.
• The power-up messages are displayed, and then the console prompt is displayed
or the operating system boot messages are displayed, depending on the state of
the Halt button.
C.1.3.13 setesc
The setesc command allows the user to reset the default escape sequence for entering
console mode. The escape sequence can be any character string. A typical sequence
consists of 2 or more characters, to a maximum of 15 characters. The escape
sequence is stored in the module’s on-board NVRAM.
NOTE: If you change the escape sequence, be sure to record the new sequence.
Although the module factory defaults can be restored if the user has forgotten the
escape sequence, this involves accessing the server control module and moving a
jumper.
The following sample escape sequence consists of five iterations of the Ctrl key and
the letter “o”.
RCM>setesc
^o^o^o^o^o
RCM>
