Rules
The following are rules for CPU module configurations. Examples are provided in
parentheses.
If the workstation has only one CPU module, the CPU module must be installed
into slot 0. Slot 0 consists of connectors J0501 and J0601.
An UltraSPARC III CPU module cannot be paired with an UltraSPARC III Cu
CPU module, even if they run at the same speed.
Sun Blade 1000 workstations with two UltraSPARC III CPU (non-Cu) modules
can have different speeds (example: 600 MHz and 900 MHz).
Workstations with two UltraSPARC III Cu CPU modules must have the same
version and the same speed (example: 1.050 GHz Cu-C and 1.050 GHz Cu-C).
Minimum Software Requirements
The following table describes the minimum Solaris operating environment release,
OpenBoot PROM version, and software patches required for the Sun Blade 1000 and
Sun Blade 2000 systems.
