domain. Your goal is one of the following:
Adding a SPARC64 VII processor (using the addfru command )
Replacing a SPARC64 VI processor with a SPARC64 VII processor (using the
replacefru command)
1. Add the SPARC64 VII CPU to the CMU.

Note – Be sure to perform diagnosis of the newly mounted CMU in the
Maintenance menu of the addfru(8) or replacefru(8) command.

is recognized by the server and that the error indicator asterisk (*) is not
displayed.

abnormality has occurred.
