Dynamic Reconfiguration Function - Fujitsu SPARC EnterpriseM3000 User Manual

Internal Cabinet Configuration, Recognition, and Domain Configuration
Control Functions
To use XSCF, you can display the system configuration status, and create and change
domain configuration definitions. It also provides domain start and stop functions,
mainly for its own use. In the server, the user can configure a domain as a single
Physical System Board (PSB) that has CPU, memory, and I/O device, or a PSB
logically divided, which are the eXtended System Boards: (XSBs). The user assigns a
domain and the Logical System Boards (LSBs) number that can be referenced from
the domain to the XSBs for control of the domain configuration. The type of the PSB
not logically divided is called Uni-XSB and the type of the PSB logically divided into
four is called Quad-XSB.
For details on domain configuration, see the Overview Guide for your server and
Chapter
Note – In the M3000 server, the domain configuration control function is not
available. The M3000 server consists of a single PSB (Uni-XSB) equipped with one
CPU, and operates with one domain only. Unlike the M4000/M5000/M8000/M9000
servers, the user cannot configure a domain by logically dividing the PSB.

Dynamic Reconfiguration Function

XSCF supports dynamic system board configuration change operations while the
domains are operating. Dynamic reconfiguration (DR) of a domain can be achieved
using XSCF. For details on DR, see the Dynamic Reconfiguration User's Guide.
Note – In the M3000 server, the DR function is not available.
Console Redirection Function
XSCF provides a function that displays the OS console of the Oracle Solaris OS of
each domain. With an SSH (Secure Shell) or telnet connection to XSCF, the user can
access the console of any domain in the system. For details on the console, see
