Understanding the Installation Flow
This chapter describes the required workflows for installation of the SPARC M10
systems, broken up into the following sections.
For the overview, configuration, and specifications of each model, see the Fujitsu
M10/SPARC M10 Systems Quick uide.

1.1 Workflow for the SPARC M10-1
The SPARC M10-1 is a 1U-size chassis with 1 CPU (8 or 16 cores). This compact
model combines a space-saving design and high performance.
This section describes the flow from SPARC M10-1 installation to the initial system
settings.
The initial system settings are the settings implemented before system startup, and
they include
the XSCF setup, CPU Activation setting, and physical partition
configuration.
By clicking a reference enclosed in " " to display a section, you can see the details of
the respective step.

1.2 Workflow for the SPARC M10-4
The SPARC M10-4 is a 4U-size chassis that can be configured with up to 4 CPUs (32
or 64 cores). The SPARC M10-4 is not used in a building block configuration but used
alone.
This section describes the flow from SPARC M10-4 installation to the initial system
settings.
The initial system settings
are the settings implemented before system startup, and
they include the XSCF setup, CPU Activation setting, and physical partition
configuration.
By clicking a reference enclosed in " " to display a section, you can see the details of
the respective step.

Note -
Before starting work for a system using the SPARC M10-4S in the 1BB configuration,
see "1.2 Workflow for the SPARC M10-4."
1.3 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 Table 1-3.
This section describes the workflow separately by how the chassis is connected.

A configuration with direct connections between chassis (without an expansion rack)
directly connects each SPARC M10-4S unit with crossbar cables (electrical). It can be
expanded to up to the 4BB configuration.
This section describes the flow from installation of a building block configuration to
the initial system settings.
The initial system settings
are the settings implemented before system startup, and
they include the XSCF setup, CPU Activation setting, and physical partition
configuration.
