Intel® Server Board X38ML Platform Management SOL Found Active: The BIOS prioritizes SOL over Serial B Console Redirection. The BIOS queries the BMC for the SOL Baud Rate and overrides the Setup Serial B Console Redirection Baud with the SOL Baud Rate. The BIOS enables Hardware Flow control between the BIOS and BMC and forces terminal emulation type PC-ANSI. Since Serial B is a shared port between the BIOS and BMC, if the SOL is active, the user will not see any data on Serial B port. Note: The SOL override settings are only valid for the current BIOS boot. If the SOL is not active during the next boot, the BIOS uses the Console Redirection settings selected by the user and performs Console Redirection on Serial port A. Example 2: Console Redirection is enabled on Serial A with Baud = 115200, Flow Control=CTS-RTS, Terminal Type =VT100. SOL Not Active: The BIOS sends data on Serial A port with 115200 Baud, with flow control CTS-RTS enabled, and it emulates terminal Type VT100. In summary, the BIOS uses the BIOS Setup utility to perform Console Redirection on Serial A. SOL Found Active: The BIOS prioritizes SOL over Serial A Console Redirection. The BIOS queries the BMC for the SOL Baud Rate and overrides the Setup Serial A Console Redirection Baud with the SOL Baud Rate. The BIOS enables Hardware Flow control between the BIOS and BMC and forces terminal emulation type as PC-ANSI. The BIOS stops sending data on Serial A. Note: The SOL override settings are only valid for the current BIOS boot. If the SOL is not active during the next boot, the BIOS uses the Console Redirection settings selected by the user and performs Console Redirection on Serial port A.
