About ALOM Configuration Variables

ALOM has nonvolatile configuration variables that you can use to change ALOM behavior. The default values for these variables are preinstalled. You customize the variables for the first time using the setupsc interactive script command. You can change settings for individual variables using either the ALOM command shell or the scadm set command.

How to Use Configuration Variables in the ALOM Command Shell

Note: You must have a level user permission to set configuration variables from the ALOM command shell. You must log in to the host server as root to set an ALOM configuration variable using the scadm utility.

From the ALOM command shell:

To specify a value (or values) for this variable, use the setupsc command.
To show the configuration variables and their settings, use the showsc command.
To set a value for a configuration variable, use the setsc command.
To reset all variables to their factory defaults, use the setdefaults command.

Using the scadm utility:

To view the current value, use the show command.
To change the value, use the set command.
