Sun Enterprise 10000 Release Notes
This section describes issues that involve the following features on the Sun Enterprise 10000
server:
■
System Service Processor requirement
■
Dynamic reconguration (DR)
■
InterDomain Networks (IDNs)
■
Solaris Operating System on Sun Enterprise 10000 domains
Note – The Solaris 10 software can be run on individual domains within a Sun Enterprise 10000
system. However, the Sun Enterprise 10000 System Service Processor is not supported by this
release.
System Service Processor Requirement
The SSP 3.5 software is required on your System Service Processor (SSP) to support the Solaris
10 software. Install the SSP 3.5 on your SSP rst. Then you can install or upgrade to the Solaris
10 OS on a Sun Enterprise 10000 domain.
The SSP 3.5 software is also required so that the domain can be properly congured for DR
Model 3.0.
Dynamic Reconguration Issues
This section describes dierent issues that involve dynamic reconguration on Sun Enterprise
10000 domains.
DR Model 3.0
You must use DR 3.0 on Sun Enterprise 10000 domains that run the Solaris OS beginning with
the Solaris 9 12/03 release. DR model 3.0 refers to the functionality that uses the following
commands on the SSP to perform domain DR operations:
■
addboard
■
moveboard
■
deleteboard
■
showdevices
■
rcfgadm
You can run the cfgadm command on domains to obtain board status information. DR model
3.0 also interfaces with the Reconguration Coordination Manager (RCM) to coordinate the
DR operations with other applications that are running on a domain.
