Points To Note On Configurations With The Pci Expansion Unit Connected - Fujitsu ORACLE M10-1 Installation Manual

Table 1-3 Workflow when installing the PCI expansion unit (continued)
Step (work time (*1)) Work description
13 Perform an initial diagnosis test on the
physical system board (PSB).
14 Check the status of mounted
components.
*1 Average work time
*2 Time required for mounting optional components is not included.
*3 This is not necessary to mount the PCI expansion unit in an empty space in the installed rack.
*4 If the optional components are also ordered, they are shipped mounted to the PCI expansion unit.
1.2.1 Points to note on configurations with the PCI
expansion unit connected
In either of the following cases, the logical domain configuration of a physical
partition returns to the factory-default state at the next start time of the control
domain. Also, the OpenBoot PROM environment variables of the control domain
may be initialized.
In a configuration with the PCI expansion unit connected, the firmware is updated
■
from XCP 2043 or earlier to XCP 2044 or later.
The PCI expansion unit is installed in or removed from a system with the
■
firmware XCP 2044 or later.
Save the logical domain configuration information from Oracle Solaris to an XML file
in advance. Also, keep a note of the setting information for the OpenBoot PROM
environment variables of the control domain in advance to set them again.
