Hello Brad,

well actually Netra t1 105 comes with LOMlite, but I think that's not
the problem. LOM stands for Lights Out Management and it for remote
management of the system. Power management - powering on, off etc is
managed from OBP and OS.
Solaris 9 is supported on Netra t1 105 ( just checked this:
http://docs.sun.com/db/doc/816-1664-10/6m82lv9lf?a=view )
By the way what release are you using ?Are you sure that all necessary
patches are installed ? Download latest patches for Solaris 9 and install
them. Also are you positive that typing "power-off" at ok prompt does not
switch system off ? I'm thinking that if that is the case then OBP update
is needed. Patch number for that is 108673-02 from Aug/07/00


 Regards,
 Peter
