Notes on Power Consumption Monitoring
Function and Airflow Indicator
The amount of power consumption and exhaust air might not be indicated
■
correctly in the MIB information, in the showenvironment power and the
showenvironment air command output, and on the XSCF Web in the
following cases; and you should wait for one minute and check the value again.
■
■
The figures on the power consumption monitoring function and airflow indicator
■
respectively represent the dissipation power and volume of air exhausted from
the server. The figures of peripheral devices are not included.

Notes on NTP Server

We recommend the domain to use the XSCF Unit as NTP server. In this case, pay
■
attention to the following points:
■
■
For details on NTP server, contact a service engineer. For details on NTP settings,
refer to the SPARC Enterprise M3000/M4000/M5000/M8000/M9000 Servers XSCF
User's Guide.

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.
The address of the XSCF's own local clock is fixed to "127.127.1.0." On the other
hand, when the address of the local clock of the NTP server which XSCF refers to
is set to "127.127.1.0," the address of the clock source (refid) has the same value as
the address of the XSCF's own local clock. An NTP server like this is excluded
from the target of XSCF time synchronization.
You can execute the showntp -l command to refer to the address of the NTP
server's own clock source which is set in XSCF and the address of the XSCF's own
local clock.
4 SPARC Enterprise M3000 Server Product Notes for XCP Version 1093 • July 2010
During the server powering on or powering off, or for a while after the power-
on or power-off complete
During the active replacement of power supply unit, or for a while after the
active replacement complete
XSCF must be connected to an external NTP server
When you connect one or more NTP servers in addition to XSCF, connect the
same NTP server as XSCF is using
