XCP 2043-Related Information
This chapter provides XCP 2043-related information.
■Latest Information on XCP 2043
■SPA C M10 System Lineup
■Notes and estrictions
■XCP 2043 Problems and Workarounds
Latest Information on XCP 2043
This section describes newly added functions for XCP 2043.
■It became possible to connect multiple SPA C M10-4Ss through crossbar boxes.
For details, see "SPA C M10 System Lineup."
SPARC M10 System Lineup
There are the following SPA C M10 system models:
■SPA C M10-1
This is a compact model that has one CPU and provides both small footprint and
high performance.
■SPA C M10-4
This is a model that uses a single cabinet that has four or two CPUs.
■SPA C M10-4S
This is a model that allows multiple cabinets that have four or two CPUs to be
connected by a system called building block.
You can connect up to 16 cabinets through the crossbar box. If you want a
four-cabinet configuration at a maximum, you can directly connect the cabinets to
one another.
5

■PCI expansion unit
This is an optional cabinet for I/O slot expansion. It supports PCI Express (PCIe),
and can be used in the above three models.
XCP 2043 is the first firmware package that supports SPA C M10-4S connection
through the crossbar box.
Notes and Restrictions
This section describes notes and restrictions that are known as of this release.
Notes on OpenBoot PROM
■If you execute the sendbreak(8) command after the OpenBoot P OM banner
appears on the domain console but before OpenBoot P OM startup is completed,
the following error message is output. In this case, the boot command becomes
unable to be executed.
FATAL: OpenBoot initialization sequence prematurely
terminated.
In this case, set the OpenBoot P OM environment variable auto-boot? to false at
the ok prompt, and execute the reset-all command. When OpenBoot P OM is
restarted, set auto-boot? to true, and execute the boot command.
■When you use the XSCF firmware setpparparam(8) command to set an OpenBoot
P OM environment variable, such as nvramrc, the maximum number of
characters that can be set is 254.
If you want to set a string of 255 or more characters in an OpenBoot P OM
environment variable, such as nvramrc, do so in the OpenBoot P OM or Oracle
Solaris environment. Note that, however, the maximum number of characters is
1024.
■The OpenBoot P OM device aliases disk and net are not created for Oracle VM
Server for SPA C disks and logical domains to which no network is assigned. To
execute disk boot or network boot by specifying the device alias disk or net, set the

Notes on maintenance for CPU memory unit and
motherboard unit
The setting information of the CPU core activation and the CPU core activation key
may be deleted when the CPU Memory Unit lower (CMUL) or the Mother Board
Unit (MBU) is replaced. To restore the setting information of CPU core activation and
the CPU core activation key, it is necessary to save the setting information of the CPU
core activation and CPU core activation key beforehand, using the dumpconfig(8)
Fujitsu M10/SPARC M10 Systems Product Notes for XCP Version 2043 ･October 20136

command and restore them with the restoreconfig(8) command.
Notes on CPU core activation
■If the XSCF setting information is initialized by executing the restoredefaults(8)
command in XCP 2032 or earlier, the information of the CPU core activation key is
also initialized.
When executing the restoredefaults(8) command, save the CPU core activation key
in advance before restoring it or register the key again.
■If you execute the restoredefaults -c xscf command on XCP 2041 or later, the
information of the CPU core activation key is deleted not only from the XSCF unit
but also from the backup information in the XSCF. On the other hand, even if you
execute the restoredefaults -c factory command, the information of the CPU core
activation key is not deleted.
To initialize all settings to factory defaults including the information of the CPU
core activation key, use the -c factory -r activation option.
For the information of changes of the restoredefaults command, see "Contents of
evision of SPA C M10 Systems XSCF eference Manual."
■XSCF setting information saved by the dumpconfig(8) command contains CPU
core activation information and CPU core activation keys.
You can use the restoreconfig(8) command to restore CPU core activation
information and CPU core activation keys saved by the dumpconfig(8) command.
Therefore, if you configure CPU core activation or install a CPU core activation
key when configuring some settings for the XSCF, such as configuring an XSCF
network or physical partition (PPA ), it is recommended to save the CPU core
activation information and CPU core activation key by using the dumpconfig(8)
command. To save and restore only CPU core activation keys, execute the
dumpcodactivation(8) and restorecodactivation(8) commands, respectively. Note
that, however, these commands cannot save and restore CPU core activation
information. Use the showcod(8) and setcod(8) commands to reconfigure CPU
core activation.
