Good call. Now when I log in, TERM=xterm. However when I size the PuTTY window to 100x55 and type a long command, it still wraps it at 80 columns back to column 1 on the same line, which is not desirable. The BASH version is 4.1.11(1)-release, and the environment shows COLUMNS=80 and LINES=65 -- different from before when COLUMNS=80 and LINES=34. Try a different termtype? Any other ideas?

I'm using Solaris 11.2 on a T5-2 SPARC server, and when I log in on the console (via ILOM, using PuTTY), the terminal type gets set to "sun", which is really annoying.

Oracle's docs (https://docs.oracle.com/cd/E23824_01/html/821-1451/modsafapp-81679.html) show a slightly different svccfg invocation:
# svccfg -s svc:/system/console-login:default "setprop ttymon/terminal_type = xterm"
As best I can tell, the svccfg line you used is valid for Solaris 10, not 11, but I'm not at all certain of that conclusion.
