Thank to Mike Cunningham for his advise.

For Sun Saprc 10, the serial connector A/B by default is A.

I did change /etc/remote

hardwire:\
                :dv=/dev/term/b:br#9600:el=^C^S^Q^U^D:ie=%$:oe=^D:

to

hardwire:\
                :dv=/dev/term/a:br#9600:el=^C^S^Q^U^D:ie=%$:oe=^D:

And
hostname# pmadm -r -p zsmon -s ttya

After that, the tip hardwire works fine.
