Yes, serial port hardware is there. From BIOS, I couldnot find an
option how to
enable/set serial port. Then tried with Ubuntu linux, and it has
found the hardware,
and able to tip from solaris node. With Solaris /dev/ttya or
/dev/ttyb are not created.
I see some devinfo nodes missing drivers, not sure that is the cause.
