Sun HPC 3.0 SCI Guide

Run sciconf

Run the command sciconf as root on the node that contains the new SCI adapter card. This will initialize the card so it can be used by the local SCI driver software. In the following example, sciconf is run on a node that has been added to an existing network. This node contains a single SCI adapter whose serial number is 6269. The sciconf output indicates the network ID and SBus slot of this SCI adapter.
