Chapter 9 XSCF Unit Replacement 9-5
9.1.3 Installing the XSCF Unit
Caution – Do not force the XSCF unit into a slot. Doing so can cause damage to the
XSCF unit and server.
1. Place the XSCF unit on the lip and gently slide it into the slot.
Use the lever as a handle to avoid touching the circuits.
2. Lock the lever into place to seat the board.
3. Connect the ethernet and UPC cables to the XSCFU.
9.1.4 Securing the Server
1. Power on the server.
This step includes reconnecting power cables, verifying the state of the LEDs, and
turning the keyswitch to the Locked position. See Section 4.4.2, “Powering the
Server On Using Software” on page 4-13.
Note – If automatic booting is configured, use the sendbreak -d domain_id
command after the display console banner is displayed but before the system starts
booting the operating system to get the ok prompt.
2. Confirm the hardware.
This step includes running programs to be certain all components are mounted
again and then booting the operating system.
Refer to Section 4.3.2, “Verifying Hardware Operation” on page 4-9 for more
information.
The version of the firmware on the new XSCF unit might be different from the
version used on the replaced XSCF unit. When replacing the XSCF unit, it is
necessary to check the XCP version of the new XSCF unit. To prevent possible
malfunction or damage to the system, ensure that the firmware of the new XSCF
unit is the same version as that used on the replaced XSCF unit or the latest
version.
To check the version and update the firmware, refer to the SPARC Enterprise
M3000/M4000M5000/M8000/M9000 Servers Product Notes for XCP Version 1100,
which contains a matrix that shows supported firmware, software, and required
patches for current and previous releases.
