Configuration Rules; System Requirements For The Ultrasparc Iii 600 Mhz Cpu Module - Sun Microsystems Sun Blade 1000 Service Manual

The CPU die contains a temperature sensing diode that is connected to a
temperature controller located off of the die. This temperature controller performs
the analog-to-digital temperature conversion and is interfaced through the I2C serial
bus.
C.1.2.1

Configuration Rules

The following configuration rules apply to the Sun Blade 1000 and Sun Blade 2000
workstations:
You can install one or two UltraSPARC III CPU modules into the workstation
motherboard.
If you wish to install more than one UltraSPARC III 600, 750, or 900 MHz CPU
module on a Sun Blade 1000, you can. The speed of the modules does not need to
be identical.
If you wish to install more than one UltraSPARC III Cu CPU module on a Sun
Blade 2000, you can. However, the speed of the modules must be identical.
Note – Never mix UltraSPARC III 600, 750, or 900 MHz CPU modules with
UltraSPARC III Cu CPU modules. If the modules are mixed, the workstation will not
boot.
Always insert the first CPU module into CPU slot 0 (connectors J0501 and J0601).
If a second CPU module is to be installed, install the second CPU module into
CPU slot 1 (connectors J0701 and J0801).
C.1.2.2 System Requirements for the UltraSPARC III 600 MHz CPU
Module
If you are replacing or installing a 600 MHz UltraSPARC III CPU module, you will
need to install software patches 109888-10*, 110460-09*, 108528-10*, and OpenBoot
PROM firmware upgrade patch 111292-04*.
