expansion unit is also ordered, the optional components (memory, internal storage (HDD/SSD), PCIe card) are shipped mounted to the
PCI expansion unit.
*4 In Japan, the link card is shipped mounted to the SPARC M12-1. Outside Japan, the link card is packed and shipped together with the
PCI expansion unit.
*5 The physical partition configuration information is already set.
*6 One CD-ROM disk containing a CPU Activation certificate is provided with the system. The CPU Activation key may be registered
with the system.
*7 If you have started Oracle Solaris and changed the configuration of a logical domain, save the logical domain configuration.
Note - The SPARC M12 systems have Oracle Solaris preinstalled. According to the purpose,
either use the preinstalled Oracle Solaris as is or reinstall it.
