i have not yet rebooted. i connected via ipmitool to determine the proper tty, 
but got no response:

    $ ipmitool -H smartos2-ipmi -I lanplus -U dewey sol activate
    Password:
    [SOL Session operational.  Use ~? for help]
    ~. [terminated ipmitool]

i tried this with ipmitool installed with smartos as well as ipmitool installed 
from packages on openbsd 5.4; both showed the same thing.

logging into smartos, i see the following:

# ps wax|grep [t]ty
  2275 console  S  0:00 /usr/lib/saf/ttymon -g -d /dev/wscons -l console -m 
ldterm,ttcompat -h -p smartos02 wscons login:
  2298 term/a   S  0:00 /usr/lib/saf/ttymon -g -d /dev/term/a -l 115200 -T 
xterm -m ldterm,ttcompat -h -p smartos02 ttya login:
  2297 term/b   S  0:00 /usr/lib/saf/ttymon -g -d /dev/term/b -l 115200 -T 
xterm -m ldterm,ttcompat -h -p smartos02 ttyb login:
  2339 vt/2     S  0:00 /usr/lib/saf/ttymon -g -d /dev/vt/2 -l console -m 
ldterm,ttcompat -h -p smartos02 vt2 login:
  2348 vt/3     S  0:00 /usr/lib/saf/ttymon -g -d /dev/vt/3 -l console -m 
ldterm,ttcompat -h -p smartos02 vt3 login:
  2305 vt/4     S  0:00 /usr/lib/saf/ttymon -g -d /dev/vt/4 -l console -m 
ldterm,ttcompat -h -p smartos02 vt4 login:
  2309 vt/5     S  0:00 /usr/lib/saf/ttymon -g -d /dev/vt/5 -l console -m 
ldterm,ttcompat -h -p smartos02 vt5 login:
  2344 vt/6     S  0:00 /usr/lib/saf/ttymon -g -d /dev/vt/6 -l console -m 
ldterm,ttcompat -h -p smartos02 vt6 login:

this shows a ttymon for each of the virtual consoles, the keyboard/monitor 
console, and ttya/ttyb serial ports. is it possible that ipmitool is connecting 
to ttyc where there is no monitor?
