6.2.2 SPARC64 VII Processors Added to an Existing
Domain
Adding SPARC64 VII Processors to an existing domain is a two step process. First
you must prepare the system (see
Section 6.2.2.1, “Preparing to Add SPARC64 VII
Processors to an Existing Domain” on page 6-8 ) and then you must install the
Processors using the instructions that correspond to your installation scenario.
6.2.2.1 Preparing to Add SPARC64 VII Processors to an Existing
Domain
1. If necessary, upgrade to a version of Solaris OS that supports SPARC64 VII
processors.
Note – The SPARC64 VII processors are supported by the XCP firmware (beginning
with XCP 1070) and Solaris software. For more information about these minimum
software and firmware requirements, see the latest version of the Product Notes (no
earlier than the XCP 1070 edition) for your server.
2. Log in to the XSCF on an account with platform administrative privileges.
3. Use the showstatus(8) command to confirm that a component in Faulted or
Deconfigured status doesn't exist.
4. Turn off the power to a domain assigned the CMU of which you upgrade or
add the CPU.
5. Confirm that the target domain stopped.
6. Change the key position on the operator panel from Locked to Service.
7. Collect an XSCF snapshot to archive system status prior to upgrade.
This will be help in case any problem occurred in this procedure.
