Dynamic Reconfiguration For Hot-Pluggable System Boards; Cpu Over-Temperature Safeguard (Cos) - Sun Microsystems 6500 Installation Manual

4.3 Dynamic Reconfiguration for
Hot-Pluggable System Boards
If the dynamic reconfiguration feature is enabled in the operating environment,
service providers can install, remove, or replace a hot-pluggable system board
without powering down the system. For the Solaris 2.6, Solaris 7, and Solaris 8
Operating Environments, dynamic reconfiguration applies to specific types of
boards in the Sun Enterprise 3x00. For instructions, refer to the Sun Enterprise
6x00,5x00,4x00, and 3x00 Systems Dynamic Reconfiguration User's Guide included in the
online AnswerBook2 for your Solaris Operating Environment or refer to the
docs.sun.com web site for more information on dynamic reconfiguration.
4.4 CPU Over-Temperature Safeguard
(COS)
The CPU over-temperature safeguard (COS) software feature is automatically
available on the Sun Enterprise server systems. COS ensures that the temperature on
any CPU/Memory+ board does not rise above the safe operating range.
Refer to the online Platform Notes for information about COS requirements and
operation.
