NAME

 hpost - Sun Fire 15K/12K power-on self-test (POST) control application

SYNOPSIS

 hpost

DESCRIPTION

 

hpost(1M) is responsible for probing, testing, and configuring the hardware of a Sun Fire 15K/12K domain, preparing it for use by the OpenBoot PROM and the Solaris operating environment. Alternate modes prepare a single board for attach to a running domain using dynamic reconfiguration (DR), create hardware state dump files on the system controller (SC), clear certain non fatal hardware error states, and perform related Sun Fire 15K/12K hardware operations.

Note – This application is intended to be run only by other SMS applications or daemons. Invoking it directly from the command line can cause failures of running domains, and is not a supported mode of use.

hpost's clients include:

  • dsmd(1M)
  • dxs(1M)
  • setkeyswitch(1M)

hpost is a client of:

  • hwad(1M)
  • pcd(1M)

hpost requires and uses flash PROM images and downloadable local POST executables delivered in the SUNWSMSlp package.
