# eeprom com2-noprobe=true
This (undocumented) option to the eeprom command disables boot-up time
probing of COM2 (apparently done to detect modems). The eeprom command
alters the Solaris boot sector. If the UPS is connected to a serial port
during boot-up time, the UPS may go into self-test or shutdown or
recalibrate. An alternate solution is to disconnect the serial cable
during booting. With the obvious change, this also works for COM1.
