  • Page 26: Notes On The Ntp Server Referring To The Local Clock

    Notes on the NTP Server Referring to the Local Clock When the NTP server which XSCF refers to is referring to the server's own system time (local clock), and when the address of "127.127.1.0" is set to that local clock, time synchronization in XSCF might fail.
  • Page 27: Notes On Timezones

    Change the stratum value of the NTP server ■ Of the NTP server which XSCF refers to, change the stratum value to "1." An NTP server which has the stratum value of "1" becomes the most significant clock source and has no refid. Therefore, there is no chance that it will have the same address as the XSCF's own local clock.

  • Page 31: Updating To Xcp 1121

    Updating to XCP 1121 To update your XCP to XCP 1121, please pay attention to the following points depending on your current XCP version. You can upgrade to XCP 1121 from XCP version 1050 or later. Refer to the SPARC Enterprise M3000/M4000/M5000/M8000/M9000 Servers XSCF User’s Guide for instructions.
  • Page 32 On a domain which has been in operation during the XCP update to 1121, when ■ you perform Dynamic Reconfiguration (DR) to add or replace the SPARC64 VII processors, you need to update the OpenBoot PROM firmware. The OpenBoot PROM firmware is updated as you update the XCP and restart the domain. For this reason, it is strongly recommended to restart all the domains after you update the firmware to XCP 1121, regardless of whether you added or replaced the SPARC64 VII processors.
