8. Click the init attach button.
Clicking on the init attach button begins the first phase of the board attach process.
First, the system updates the SSP domain.config(4) file by adding the system
board to the board list of the target domain. Next, the system uses hpost(1M) to
self-test the system board. After the self-test is complete, the board is made visible to
the running target domain by merging it into the hardware domain by modifying
the centerplane and the system board hardware registers. Finally, during the
conclusion of the init attach, OBP probes the new board to discover what CPU, I/O,
and memory resources are present on the board. When this phase is finished, the
caption on the button changes to complete. Before you click the complete button,
however, you may want to view the domain information to verify that you want to
proceed, as described in "Viewing Domain Information" on page 37.
Typically, the Init Attach operation can take a few minutes to complete. Output from
the hpost(1M) command is directed to the Information pane of the Dynamic
Reconfiguration window.
If the Init Attach fails, look for the cause in the output in the Information pane. After
you have determined the cause, you may want to choose Init Attach again.
If the Init Attach operation completes successfully, the window changes to that
