Installing PCI Components on the
Sun Enterprise 10000 System

Introduction

This document provides you with the information necessary to replace SBus
components with PCI components on a system board. Before you can install PCI
components on a system board, that board must belong to a domain that has Solaris
2.6 or subsequent compatible version installed and the System Service Processor
(SSP) must be running SSP version 3.1 or subsequent compatible version. For
information about installing Solaris, refer to documentation that shipped with the
Solaris CD, which contains procedures for installing Solaris 2.6 on a new domain or
upgrading a domain to Solaris 2.6.
The board on which you wish to install the PCI components must be physically
removed from the system. However, if the system is up, and the domain to which
the board belongs is running, you must remove the board logically before you do so
physically.
This document contains the following sections to assist you with installing PCI
components on your Sun Enterprise 10000 system.
