NOTES
- T7-x, S7-x and all platforms forward should use the Locator button (front/rear) as the Physical Presence switch
- To perform some procedures documented in the Oracle ILOM core documentation, you must create a serial connection to the server and activate the Physical Presence switch on the server. For information about creating a serial connection, refer to the installation guide for the server.
- If the physical presence/locator button is not working and/or can not be located, then as temporary workaround the physical presence check can be disabled:
  - -> show /SP check_physical_presence
  - -> set /SP check_physical_presence=false
  - -> show /SP check_physical_presence
  and it can be later enabled
  - -> show /SP check_physical_presence
  - -> set /SP check_physical_presence=true
  - -> show /SP check_physical_presence
- For more information look at the documents below:
  - T Series Server Documentation
  - Oracle Integrated Lights Out Manager (ILOM) 3.x Documentation
