Moving A System Board - Fujitsu SPARC Enterprise M4000 Features Manual

Note – (Note 1) The time required for system board deletion processing depends on
the amount of hardware resources mounted on the target system board. For this
reason, much time may be required for the command to end its operation. If the
system board contains kernel memory, the OS is suspended for a while.
Note – (Note 2) If the DR processing executed by the deleteboard(8) command
fails, the target system board cannot be restored to the previous status. If DR
processing fails, identify the cause of failure based on the error message output by
the deleteboard(8) command and Oracle Solaris OS messages, and then take
appropriate corrective action. Note that some errors require the domain to be
rebooted.
Note – (Note 3) When a system board is forcibly deleted from a domain by the
deleteboard(8) command with the -f option specified, a serious problem may
occur in a process that is bound to the CPU or in accessing an I/O device. For this
reason, you should avoid using the -f option for normal DR operations. When using
the deleteboard(8) command with the -f option specified, be sure to check the
status of the domain and application processes.
Note – (Note 4) You can execute the deleteboard(8) command on a domain that is
not running. When the domain is running, the deleteboard(8) command with "-c
disconnect" or "-c unassign" will succeed only if the following Oracle Solaris
Service Management Facility (SMF) services are active on that domain:
- Domain SP Communication Protocol (dscp)
- Domain Configuration Server (dcs)
- Oracle Sun Cryptographic Key Management Daemon (sckmd)

Moving a System Board

Use the moveboard(8) command to delete a system board from the move-source
domain and add it to the move-destination domain, assign it to the move-destination
domain, or reserve it to be moved later.
To execute the moveboard(8) command, the system board must have been
configured in or assigned to the move-source domain, and be registered in the DCL
for the move-destination domain.
