From our last post about XSCF Cheat sheet, we put there some commands on an XSCF management interface card. I thought that was the most common one, but we forgot to put in how to send ‘break’ to the host console!

Here’s how:

XSCF> sendbreak -d 0 [sends break command to domain 0]

You can then continue with the console and do what you’re suppose to do.. sync? reboot? etc…
