remove the CPU memory unit upper.
If PCI Express cables are not connected to the CPU memory unit lower, you need
■
to add PCI Express cables.
If PCI Express cables are connected to the CPU memory unit lower, you need to
■
add only one PCI Express cable.
If the CPU memory unit upper for the 2CPU configuration of the SPARC M10-4/
■
M10-4S is installed, the root complex is also installed. Then, by enabling the I/O
bus reconfiguration function(*1), the I/O bandwidth increases, and the PCIe card
installation rules(*2) change. In addition, the I/O bus reconfiguration also changes
the device path of the I/O device(*3), so you may have to reconfigure the logical
domains.
The type of CPU memory unit varies depending on the number of CPU clocks.

They cannot be mixed in the same device, but they can be mixed in a system with
a building block configuration.

Precautions for memory expansion
Observe the memory installation rules when you expand memory. For details, see
■
"2.2.1 Memory installation
When you expand memory by 64 GB, apply XCP 2090 or later.
■
Unless memory modules of 512 GB (64 GB DIMM x 8) are mounted in the 16
■
DIMM slots under a CPU, memory modules of up to two different capacities can
be mounted together. In this case, use the same type within each memory group.
Note - When you expand memory with a different capacity, apply XCP 2052 or later.
Precautions for internal disk expansion
To expand an internal disk, remove the hard disk drive filler unit from the slot in
■
which you will install the internal disk. Store the removed filler unit in a safe place
because it will be needed if you subsequently remove the internal disk.
Precautions for PCIe card expansion
Set a multipath depending on the use of the PCIe card when performing active/hot
■
maintenance or active/cold maintenance with PHP.
For active addition using PHP, confirm that the card supports PHP as described in
■
"Appendix A Cards That Support PCI Hot Plug and Dynamic Reconfiguration"
in the Fujitsu M10/SPARC M10 Systems PCI Card Installation Guide. For active
rules."
