Basic Software
Software Configuration
The Solaris 64-bit operating environment developed by Sun Microsystems, Inc. is used as the basic software (server
media kit) for all PRIMEPOWER models including 650 and 850. Solaris8 is a 64-bit OS that supports 64-bit SPARC
processors based on SPARC V9 architecture. Solaris8 maintains high compatibility with conventional 32-bit
applications. Solaris8 supports a 64-bit virtual address space and 64-bit file systems.
The software group required for efficient operation of PRIMEPOWER 650 and 850 is included in the Enhanced
Support Facility supplied with PRIMEPOWER 650 and 850 as standard.
This software group is required for efficient operation of PRIMEPOWER server models, machine management, the
Auto Power Control System (APCS) and System Control Facility (SCF) drivers, etc.
- Machine management
Machine management supports the settings for the hardware environment, status monitoring, and information
collection. Machine management accesses the syslog messages output by the OS, plus the hardware, via the System
Control Facility (SCF), and collects, analyzes, and displays information related to the hardware.
- Auto Power Control System
The Auto Power Control System (APCS) is a tool for automatically turning on and off the system power supply based
on a set operational schedule. The APCS sets the power-on and power-off times for the System Control Facility
(SCF).
Browser Based Software (WebSysAdmin)
WSA (WebSysAdmin) is provided as a tool for system administrators to support easier Browser-based system
administration. This tool provides an interactive, easy-to-use graphical interface environment that can be used to
display the state and mounting locations of PRIMEPOWER processing units (CPU, memory, etc.), display and delete
process states, monitor log data, and execute user, software, and task administration.
