Hi Lalita,
The OK prompt is when a sparc solaris machine is at its bootstrap stage.
Their are no services running at this point. It can only be accessed via a
console server, direct connection to servers console port, via a KVM switch
or ALOM (not sure if this was available on Solaris 8).
For all intents and purposes the server is down at this point and it needs
booting so a normal check host should be adequete.
Thanks
