Workflow For The Sparc M10-4S - Fujitsu M10 Installation Manual

Table 1-2 Workflow for the SPARC M10-4 (continued)
Step (work time (*1)) Work description
17 Configure the XSCF network.
18 When duplicating memory, configure
memory mirroring.
19 Clear the difference between the
system time and physical partition
(PPAR) time.
20 Add a CPU Activation key to the
system.
21 Assign CPU resources to the physical
partition.
22 Confirm the start/stop of the physical
partition and the connection of the
console.
*1 Average work time
*2 Time required for mounting optional components is not included.
*3 If the optional components are ordered together with the chassis, they are shipped mounted to the chassis.
*4 One CD-ROM disk containing a CPU Activation certificate is provided with the system. The system may be shipped with a registered
CPU Activation key.
Note - The SPARC M10 systems have Oracle Solaris preinstalled. According to the purpose,
either use the preinstalled Oracle Solaris as is or reinstall it.
To reinstall Oracle Solaris, install the latest Oracle VM Server for SPARC. For the latest
information on the supported Oracle Solaris versions and SRU, see the Fujitsu M10/SPARC
M10 Systems Product Notes.

Workflow for the SPARC M10-4S

The SPARC M10-4S is a system that uses a building block method connecting
multiple 4U-size chassis, each of which can be configured with up to 4 CPUs (64
cores). The one-building-block configuration (1BB configuration) with one chassis
can be expanded to up to the 16BB configuration.
For the connection of each SPARC M10-4S in a building block configuration, the rack
types and the types of cables connecting each chassis vary depending on the number
of chassis configurations. For details, see
This section describes the workflow separately by how the chassis is connected.
Note - Before starting work for a system using the SPARC M10-4S in the 1BB configuration,
