The Same SUSE OS Profile Cannot Be Used on Sun Fire V20z/V40z Servers and Sun Fire X4000 Series Servers (6344382)

Once you load a SUSE OS profile on a Sun Fire X4000 series server, that same OS profile and associated OS distribution cannot be used on Sun Fire V20z and V40z servers. Loading a SUSE OS profile on a Sun Fire X4000 series server actually modifies the associated SUSE OS distribution, which makes that OS distribution unusable by Sun Fire V20z and V40z servers.

This issue applies to the SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 9 Base and SP1 releases. It is not a problem for SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 9 SP3 release.

Workaround: You must create separate SUSE OS distributions and OS profiles for Sun Fire V20z/V40z servers and Sun Fire X4000 series servers.
