Documentation Issues

C H A P T E R 4

This chapter describes issues related to the Sun Blade 6000 modular system documentation.

FMods Are Not Supported on the Sun Blade Storage Module M2

The Oracle Integrated Lights Out Manager CMM Administration Guide for Sun Blade 6000 and 6048 Modular Systems might contain information on assigning FMods to server blades in the Sun Blade Zone Manager. FMods are not supported on the Sun Blade Storage Module M2, so these FMod assignments are not available in the Sun Blade Zone Manager.

IPV6 Network Settings Only Available for the A90-D Chassis

The Sun Blade 6000 Modular System Installation Guide and the Oracle Integrated Lights Out Manager CMM Administration Guide for Sun Blade 6000 and 6048 Modular Systems both contain instructions for configuring IPV6 network settings for the Sun Blade 6000 Modular System. IPV6 is only available for Sun Blade 6000 Modular System A90-D chassis and is not available for earlier versions of the chassis.

Incorrect Directory for DHCP IP address in Getting Started Guide (6589651)

In the Sun Blade 6000 Modular System Getting Started Guide, 820-0427-10, page 5, the directory shown for accessing the DHCP IP address is incorrect.

Step 5 in the “Using DHCP to Initially Assign All IP Addresses” section and Step 3 in the “Assigning a Static IP Address to a CMM Through a Serial Connection” section incorrectly state that the network directory for the CMM is /CH/network.

The correct directory path is /CMM/network.

Incorrect Document Reference in Integrated Lights Out Manager (ILOM) Administration Guide (6595111)

In the Integrated Lights Out Manager (ILOM) Administration Guide for the Sun Blade 6000 Modular System, 820-0052-10, the document incorrectly states that information on resetting the ILOM password with a jumper is available in the Sun Blade 6000 Modular System Installation Guide. This information is not available in the Installation Guide.

The instructions for resetting the ILOM password are below.

Note - See the Sun Blade 6000 Modular System Service Manual for instructions in removing and installing the chassis management module (CMM) from the chassis.

1. Remove the CMM from the chassis.

2. Install a jumper on pin J1101.

3. Reinstall the CMM into the chassis and allow the CMM to boot up completely.

This will change the password back to the default password: changeme

4. Remove the CMM from the chassis again.

5. Remove jumper that you installed in Step 2.

6. Reinstall the CMM into the chassis.

7. Use the password changeme when logging back into the CMM ILOM.

URL Clarification for Integrated Lights Out Manager (ILOM) Administration Guide (6596617)

In the Integrated Lights Out Manager (ILOM) Administration Guide for the Sun Blade 6000 Modular System, 820-0052-10, there are several references to the following command:

load -source URL

The URL used in this command must be in tftp format. For example:

tftp://zbank/ah27901/CMM-P0-rom.pkg

The http format will not work for this command.

Incorrect Note in Integrated Lights Out Manager (ILOM) Administration Guide (6628649)

Page 5-6 of the Integrated Lights Out Manager (ILOM) Administration Guide For the Sun Blade 6000 Modular System, 820-0052-10, has the following note:

Note - The upgrade takes about five minutes. During this time, no other tasks can be performed in the CMM.

ILOM. A successful firmware causes the CMM ILOM to reboot.

A firmware upgrade causes the server and the CMM ILOM to be reset. It is recommended that a clean shutdown of the server be done prior to the upgrade procedure.

An upgrade takes about 6 minutes to complete. The CMM ILOM enters a special mode to load new firmware. No other tasks can be performed in the CMM ILOM until the firmware upgrade is complete and the CMM ILOM is reset.

The last two statements are incorrect. The server will not be reset during a CMM firmware upgrade.

Service Processor Information Missing From Installation Guide (6692159)

It is possible to set the service processors for the server modules with different subnet IP addresses than the IP address of the chassis CMM.

This information is not included in the Installation Guide, but will be added to the next update of the document.

References to Integrated Lights Out Manager (ILOM) Documentation

You will need to reference specific documentation for the ILOM, depending on what ILOM version you are using.

If you are using ILOM version 1.x refer to the Integrated Lights Out Manager (ILOM) Administration Guide for the Sun Blade 6000 Modular System.

If you are using ILOM version 2.0, refer to the Integrated Lights Out Manager 2.0 User’s Guide.

If you are using ILOM version 3.0, refer to the Oracle Integrated Lights Out Manager (ILOM) 3.0 Documentation Collection.

All documents are posted on the product documentation site:

Power Supply Module Rating Incorrect in Some Documentation

Some of the Sun Blade 6000 modular system documentation states that the power supply modules are rated at 6000W. The correct wattage is 5600W.

Supported Racks List Is Incorrect in Installation Guide

The list of racks that support Sun Blade 6000 modular system is incorrect in the Sun Blade 6000 Modular System Installation Guide, 820-0050-10, page 5 of the PDF version.

The Sun StorEdge 72-inch expansion cabinet is not supported for Sun Blade 6000 modular system installation.

This will be corrected in a future version of the document.
