Alphabetical Listing of System Controller Commands
The following sections describe the system controller commands.
addboard
Assigns a board to a domain.
Scope
platform shell, domain shell
Syntax for the Platform Shell
addboard -d domainID system_board_name [system_board_name . . .]
addboard -h
Syntax for the Domain Shell
addboard system_board_name [system_board_name . . .]
addboard -h
Options/Parameters
-d specifies a domainID as an option (platform shell only).
domainID is a, b, c, or d.
-h displays help for this command.
system_board_name is the board to be added. Possible values for system_board_name are sb0-sb5 (CPU/Memory board) or ib6 - ib9 (I/O assembly).
Description
Assigns system_board_name to the specified domain within the platform shell or to the current domain. The board state must be Available. To display the board state, use the showboards command. For more information on board states, see Board States for CPU/Memory Boards and I/O Assemblies.
To assign a board to a domain using a domain shell, the board name must be listed in the access control list (ACL) for the current domain. When a board is listed in the ACL, the system controller software is allowed to process addboard requests on that board. The platform shell does not use the ACL and can always add boards to a domain. The platform shell can also delete boards from a domain and either ignores the ACL or overrides the ACL. You configure the ACLs and also restrict the domains a board has access to using the setupplatform command.
If a board is assigned to an active domain, the board will not be used. To unassign a board from a domain, you must halt the Solaris operating environment in the domain. For an overview of steps to perform, see the section "Assigning and Unassigning Boards" in the "General Administration" chapter of the Sun Fire Midrange Systems Platform Administration Manual.
If a board is not present, the command assigns ownership of the slot to the specified domain.
See Also
deleteboard, setkeyswitch, showboards, showdomain, showplatform, "Assigning and Unassigning Boards" in the "General Administration" chapter of the Sun Fire Midrange Systems Platform Administration Manual (for a step-by-step procedure on assigning boards to a domain)
Example--Platform Shell
From the platform shell to add board name sb2 to domain A (CODE EXAMPLE 3-1), type:
CODE EXAMPLE 3-1 addboard Example in the Platform Shell
schostname:SC> addboard -d a sb2
|
Example--Domain Shell
To assign board name sb2 to the current domain (CODE EXAMPLE 3-2), type:
CODE EXAMPLE 3-2 addboard Example in the Domain Shell
schostname:A> addboard sb2
|
addcodlicense
Adds a Capacity on Demand (COD) right-to-use (RTU) license key to the COD license database.
Scope
platform shell
Syntax
addcodlicense license-signature
addcodlicense -h
Options/Parameters
-h displays help for this command.
license-signature is the COD RTU license key to be added to the COD license database.
Description
Adds the specified COD RTU license key to the COD license database on the system controller.
Note - Before you run this command, you must obtain a COD RTU license key from the Sun License Center. For details on COD RTU license keys, refer to the Sun Fire Midrange Systems Platform Administration Manual.

Scope
domain shell
Syntax
break [-y|-n]
break -h
Options/Parameters
-h displays help for this command.
-y answers yes to the warning message. Does not prompt for confirmation.
-n answers no to the warning message. Does not execute this command if confirmation is requested.
Description
Sends a Break signal to the domain console. Resumes the domain console.
Note - This command pauses the Solaris operating environment.
|
When the Solaris operating environment is running in the domain, the usual effect of the break signal is to force entry into OpenBoot PROM or the debugger. The Solaris operating environment will ignore the break signal if the keyswitch is set
to secure.
See Also
resume, setkeyswitch, showkeyswitch
Example
CODE EXAMPLE 3-4 shows using the break command to pause the Solaris operating environment and enter the OpenBoot PROM.
CODE EXAMPLE 3-4 break Command Example

-d domainID is the domain to connect to and is a, b, c, or d. The -d parameter is optional and does not need to precede the domainID.
-h displays help for this command.
Description
Connect to a domain. You use the console command to navigate from the platform to a domain. If a password was created for connecting to this domain, you must enter the password.
Note - If the OpenBoot PROM is at the ok prompt or the Solaris operating environment is at the login: prompt, you must press the Enter key in order to see the prompt. Otherwise, you will need to wait for output to be generated by POST, the OpenBoot PROM, or the Solaris operating environment.
If the domain is hung, there will be no output. However, when a domain displays no output, this does not necessarily mean that the domain is hung.
|
If the domain is active (the domain is running the Solaris operating environment, OpenBoot PROM, or POST), you are connected to the domain console. Otherwise, you are connected to the domain shell. To obtain the domain shell from the domain console, see the chapter "Accessing the System Controller" in the Sun Fire Midrange Systems Platform Administration Manual.

Examples--Platform Shell
When the domain is not active and there is no password initialized for this domain:
CODE EXAMPLE 3-6 console Example and No Password Set Accessing Domain B
schostname:SC> console b
Connected to Domain B
Domain Shell for Domain B
schostname:B>
|
When a domain is not active and a password is initialized for this domain:
CODE EXAMPLE 3-7 console Example and A Password Set Accessing Domain A
schostname:SC> console a
Enter Password:
Connected to Domain A
Domain Shell for Domain A
schostname:A>
|
When a domain is active and a password is not set for this domain:
schostname:SC> console a
Connected to Domain A
|
Note that no other output is seen. If the OpenBoot PROM is at the ok prompt or the Solaris operating environment is at the login: prompt, you must press the Enter key in order to see the prompt. Otherwise, you will need to wait for output to be generated by POST, the OpenBoot PROM, or the Solaris operating environment.
If the domain is hung, there will be no output. However, when a domain displays no output, this does not necessarily mean that the domain is hung.
deleteboard
Unassigns a board from the domain where it is currently assigned.
Scope
platform shell, domain shell
Syntax for the Platform Shell and the Domain Shell
deleteboard system_board_name [system_board_name . . .]
deleteboard [-h]
Options/Parameters
-h displays help for this command.
system_board_name is the board to be deleted. Values are sb0 to sb5 (CPU/Memory board) and ib6 to ib9 (I/O assembly).
Description
Unassigns a board from the domain where it is currently assigned. When you use this command from your current domain, you can only unassign boards that are assigned to the current domain. The CPU/Memory board or the I/O assembly board status must be in the Assigned state and the board must not be part of an active domain. To display the board states, use the showboards command. For more information on board states, see Board States for CPU/Memory Boards and I/O Assemblies. The board does not have to be in the access control list (ACL) to be unassigned from the domain.
To unassign an active board from a domain, you must halt the Solaris operating environment in the domain. Or, you can use DR to unassign an active board. For an overview of steps to perform, see the section "Assigning and Unassigning Boards" in the "General Administration" chapter of the Sun Fire Midrange Systems Platform Administration Manual.
If a board is not present, the command unassigns ownership of the slot from the specified domain.

deletecodlicense
Removes a Capacity on Demand (COD) right-to-use (RTU) license key from the COD license database.
Scope
platform shell
Syntax
deletecodlicense [-f] license-signature
deletecodlicense -h
Options/Parameters
-f forces the specified COD RTU license key to be deleted from the COD license database, even if the license removal will result in a license violation.
-h displays help for this command.
license-signature is the COD RTU license key to be removed from the COD license database.
Description
Removes a COD RTU license key from the COD license database on the system controller. For further information on COD RTU license keys, refer to the Sun Fire Midrange Systems Platform Administration Manual.
The system checks the number of licenses against the number of COD CPUs in use. If the license removal will result in an insufficient number of COD RTU licenses for the COD CPUs in use, the system will not delete the license key from the COD license database. If you want to delete the COD RTU license key, you must reduce the number of COD CPUs in use. You can either power off the appropriate number of domains or use dynamic reconfiguration (DR) to disconnect the appropriate number of boards.

CODE EXAMPLE 3-10 deletecodlicense Command Example
schostname:SC> deletecodlicense 01:80d8a9ed:45135285:0201000000:8:00000000:0000000000000000000000
|
Note - The COD RTU license key listed above is provided as an example and is not a valid license key.
|
disablecomponent
The disablecomponent command has been deprecated starting with the 5.15.0 release and has been replaced by the setls command. It is suggested that you use the setls command even though the disablecomponent command is still available. For further information, see the setls command description.
disconnect
Disconnects the current or specified connection.
Scope
platform shell, domain shell
Syntax for the Platform Shell
disconnect [ID]
disconnect -h
Syntax for the Domain Shell
disconnect [-h]
Options/Parameters
-h displays help for this command.
ID (platform shell only) is the connection to be terminated. ID is the number displayed under the heading ID for the connections command.
Description
Terminates a connection to the system controller. If this command is used with no arguments, it disconnects the current session. For illustrations of the disconnect command, see the chapter "Accessing the System Controller" in the Sun Fire Midrange Systems Platform Administration Manual.
If the connection was initiated from another system, you will be returned to the remote host. If the session was initiated from the platform shell, you will see nothing. To obtain the prompt, press the Return key. If you are connected from the serial port, then you will return to the main menu.

CODE EXAMPLE 3-13 disconnect Example Showing Disconnecting a Session From the Domain A Shell
schostname:A> disconnect
Connection closed by foreign host.
|
CODE EXAMPLE 3-13 displays a direct connection to the domain and is not a connection to the domain made from the platform.
Note - When you disconnect from a domain shell, you will see nothing. Press the Return key to obtain the prompt.
|
dumpconfig
Saves the platform and domain configurations to a server.
Scope
platform shell
Syntax
dumpconfig -f url [-t]
dumpconfig -h
Options/Parameters
-h displays help for this command.
-f specifies the URL, which must use the FTP protocol.
url is the directory containing the data files. The URL must point to a directory and not a file. Examples are:
ftp://userid:password@hostname//path
ftp://hostname/path
ftp://IPaddress/path
-t saves configuration data in plain text (unencrypted) format. (Not recommended. Available for backward compatibility only.)
For details on FTP URLs, see Using FTP URLs.
Note - The hostname you enter can be the host name or a host name with a fully qualified domain name, such as schostname or schostname.eng.sun.com. You cannot use a partial domain name.
|
Note - The directory specified in the URL path must have write permission for the specified user. If a user is not specified, then anonymous FTP is used.
|
Description
Saves the platform and domain configurations to a server for recovery. By default, data is saved in encrypted format. You will be prompted to enter the password for the encrypted configuration data. This command creates two data files at the specified URL: hostname.nvci and hostname.tod.
Use this command when you complete setting up the initial configuration of the platform and the domains, and each time you modify the configuration or change the hardware configuration. For example, a configuration change occurs when you use any of the following commands: setupplatform, setupdomain, setdate, addboard, deleteboard, setls, and password. By running the dumpconfig command again, the new platform and domain configurations are saved to a server.
|
Caution - Invoking this command is very important because if the system controller board fails and you did not use this command to save the platform and domain configurations, you will have to manually reconfigure the platform and the domains. Use this command any time you change the platform or domain configuration (see the list of commands in the previous paragraph).
|
If you need to replace the system controller board in a single-SC configuration, the configuration information saved through the dumpconfig command is used to restore the platform and domain configurations to the replacement system controller board.
You should not use this command to revert to an old configuration. The showplatform, showdomain, showcomponent, and showboards system controller commands display all of the configuration and can be used for reference.
|
Caution - Use of the -t option causes the dumpconfig command to store all data in the .ncvi and .tod files in (unencrypted) plain text. Sensitive information, such as passwords and SSH private host keys, can be exposed--raising security risks.
|

For details on ftp URLs, see Using FTP URLs.
Note - The hostname you enter must be the host name or a host name with a fully qualified domain name. You cannot use a partial domain name. Some examples include: schostname, schostname.eng.sun.com.
|
board is the board name.
-c specifies that the image should be copied from another board.
- source_board is the source board for the flash images.
- destination_board is the destination board for the flash images.
-u automatically updates all of the boards from the board with the highest revision.
all updates the system controller, all system boards (CPU/Memory boards and I/O assemblies), and the system controller real time operating system (rtos).
system_boards are all CPU/Memory boards and I/O assemblies.
scapp updates the current system controller. Updating the system controller reboots the system controller and disconnects all the current connections. If you have a second System Controller board installed, when you run scapp, also update scapp on the second System Controller board.
rtos updates the real time operating system for the system controller. If you have a second System Controller board installed, when you update the real time operating system also update the rtos on the second System Controller board.
Description
|
Caution - Any time the firmware is upgraded, check the Install.info file for the firmware upgrade procedure. This file is provided with your latest software release. Also refer to the Release Notes for any notes or special procedures. When you update the firmware on the system controller, update only one system controller at a time. DO NOT update both system controllers at the same time.
|
Updates the firmware on the system controller, CPU/Memory boards, and I/O assemblies. There is no firmware on Repeater boards. Boards must be powered on in order to be updated with flashupdate. If a board does not have power, the flashupdate command will do nothing and stop with an error message. Boards that are in a secure domain cannot be updated.
If you install a replacement board into the system:
1. Check that the firmware level of the replacement board is the same as the board you replaced. Incompatible boards are noted by the Failed board status in the output of the showboards command.
2. If the board level is not the same as the board you replaced, perform the flashupdate procedure on the board.
3. If a board was noted by the Failed state in showboards, after you flashupdate a compatible version, power off the board to clear the Failed state.
Before you update the flash images, make sure the firmware on the replacement board is compatible with the firmware of the board you are replacing for scapp, CPU/Memory board, and I/O assembly PROMs. New firmware is loaded if you reboot the domain or turn the domain keyswitch off with setkeyswitch off and then turn it on with setkeyswitch on.
- To determine the version number of the current firmware, use the
showboards -p version command.
The new firmware may also contain a new rtos image. If the rtos image that is currently installed is different than the rtos supplied with the software, you must upgrade the rtos image.
- To determine the version number of the current rtos, use the showsc or the showboards -v -p version command. The README file also contains the version number of the new rtos image.
Note - If you fail to check all versions for compatibility, the domains can crash or the system controller can fail to reboot normally.
|
|
Caution - While upgrading the firmware, heed the following precautions:
- Read the README and Install.info files before you upgrade the firmware.
- Do not change the keyswitch position of any domain.
- Do not use DR.
- Do not power off any boards.
- Do not reboot the system controller.
|
If you upgrade the scapp or rtos images for status:
1. It is important to watch the console during the flashupdate procedure.
2. Monitor the console if errors are reported.
If the images that are already installed are incompatible with the new images:
1. Shut down the domains before performing the firmware upgrade.
2. After you perform the firmware upgrade, reboot the domains.
If the images that are already installed are compatible with the new images:
1. Reboot the domains after performing the flashupdate procedure. Even though the firmware is compatible with the older firmware version, you must upgrade the firmware to obtain new features and bug fixes.
If you install a replacement board into the system:
1. Check if the firmware level of the replacement board is the same as the board you replaced.
2. If is it not, perform the flashupdate procedure on the board.
|
Caution - Under normal circumstances, the flashupdate command will complete successfully. However, if the flashupdate command is terminated abnormally (such as a power failure, a failed network connection, and so on), the system controller will prompt you for the URL of the images to be installed.

Syntax--Platform Shell
password [-d domainID]
password -h
Syntax--Domain Shell
password
password [-h]
Options/Parameters
-d domainID is domain a, b, c, or d.
-h displays help for this command.
Description
Sets the password for the platform or the domain. There are separate passwords for each domain and for the platform. If you set a password, entering the password is required for access to the shell or console.
Note - In redundant SC configurations starting with firmware release 5.13.0, the password on the main system controller for the platform shell is also the same password on the spare system controller.
|
It is very important to set the password for the platform and each domain even if a domain is not being used. This prevents people from creating and activating unauthorized domains.
Prior to allowing the password to be changed, the current password will be authenticated. Changed passwords take effect immediately. The old password will no longer be accepted.
You can remove the password by pressing Return at the Enter new password and Enter new password again prompts.
OpenBoot PROM passwords are different from the platform and domain passwords. The OpenBoot PROM in each domain supports the OpenBoot PROM security mode, which is a standard feature of the OpenBoot PROM software. For more information on the OpenBoot PROM security mode password, see your OpenBoot PROM documentation.

Scope
platform shell, domain shell
Syntax for the Platform Shell
poweroff [-y|-n] all|grid#|component_name [component_name . . . ]
poweroff -h
Syntax for the Domain Shell
poweroff [-y|-n] all|component_name [component_name . . . ]
poweroff -h
Options/Parameters
-h displays help for this command.
-y will answer yes to any question. This option is potentially hazardous. You can forcefully power off a component with the -y option.
-n answers no to any question. You cannot forcefully power off a component with the -n option.
component_name is the component name.
Platform shell component_name(s):
- all turns off all currently controllable components.
- Power grid (grid0, grid1). The Sun Fire E6900 and 6800 systems have two power grids: grid0 and grid1. Grid 1 controls power supplies ps3, ps4, and ps5. All other midrange systems have one power grid, grid0. This grid controls power supplies ps0, ps1, and ps2.
- Power supply (ps0 - ps5)
- Spare system controller (ssc0 or ssc1)
- CPU/Memory board (sb0 - sb5)
- I/O assembly (ib6 - ib9)
- Repeater board (rp0 - rp3)
- Fan tray (ft0 - ft3)
Domain shell component_name(s):
- CPU/Memory board (sb0 - sb5)
- I/O assembly (ib6 - ib9)
Note - The specified board must be in the current domain.
|
Description
Powers off a component or a list of components.
For the domain shell, the specified board must be in the current domain.
All slots listed by showboards can be powered off except for the main system controller and the ID board (ID0). A powered-off component will not be monitored. Use the showboards command to display the power status of each board.
You can power off any component except when the board is in the Active state (use the showboards command to display the board state). When a component is in the Active state, a warning is displayed on the console that tells you the entire domain will go down. You are asked to confirm with a warning of the consequences.
If a board is active in a domain and you forcefully power off a device (board), the keyswitch for the domain will be set to standby. To change the keyswitch setting, use the setkeyswitch command.
You can power off the spare SC by running the poweroff command from the main SC. When the spare SC is powered off, the hot-plug LED is illuminated.
Repeater boards do not have an Active state. You cannot power off a Repeater board if it is being used by a domain.
You can turn off power supplies if turning off the power supply would leave sufficient power in the power grid to support the current load of the power grid. This varies with the configuration. If you attempt to power off a power supply that is required to support the current load, the power supply will not be powered off and a message stating why is displayed. You can power off redundant power supplies.
If powering off a fan would result in insufficient cooling, it cannot be powered off.

reboot
Reboots the system controller.
Scope
platform shell
Syntax
reboot [-y|-n]
reboot -h
Options/Parameters
-y does not prompt for confirmation.
-n does not execute this command. Confirmation is requested.
-h displays help for this command.
Description
Reboots the system controller. The reboot command will not change any configuration settings. Active domains will continue to run.
The keyswitch may be set to off if the system controller reboots while a keyswitch operations is in progress.
|
Caution - Rebooting interrupts any current operation. This includes keyswitch operations, rebooting the Solaris operating environment, testing boards, SNMP, and so on.
|
Examples
To reboot the system controller (CODE EXAMPLE 3-27), type:
CODE EXAMPLE 3-27 reboot Command Example

|
reset
Resets the domain.
Scope
domain shell
Syntax
reset [-y|-n][-x|-a]
reset -h
Options/Parameters
With no arguments, typing reset is the same as typing reset -x.
-y answers yes to the question asked (executes the command).
-n answers no to the question asked (does not execute the command).
-h displays help for this command.
-x resets via XIR (externally initiated reset). Use XIR to try to obtain diagnostic data (default).
-a reset is equivalent to the OpenBoot PROM reset-all command.
Description
This command resumes the domain console. Resetting the domain is not allowed if the keyswitch is in the secure position, nor is it possible if the keyswitch is configured in either the off or standby position. Before you can reset the domain, change the keyswitch position to on.
By default, reset uses XIR (externally initiated reset) to reset the CPUs in the domain. The XIR forces control of the domain into the OpenBoot PROM and begins the OpenBoot PROM error reset recovery actions. The error reset recovery actions preserve most domain states to allow collecting data needed for debugging the hardware and software, including a Solaris operating environment core file. The OpenBoot PROM error reset recovery actions are controlled by setting the OpenBoot PROM error-reset-recovery configuration parameter. For the definition of this domain parameter and the various settings, see TABLE 3-8 in the setupdomain command description.
Note that the OpenBoot PROM reset command does not generate a core file as this command does.
You cannot reset a domain that has been paused. The domain is paused automatically when hardware detects an error. Messages on the domain console indicate that the domain is paused.
To take a domain out of the paused state:
1. Turn the keyswitch off with setkeyswitch off.
2. Turn the keyswitch on with setkeyswitch on.
See Also
resume, setkeyswitch, setupdomain, showdomain, showkeyswitch, showresetstate, "Domain Not Responding" section in the "Troubleshooting" chapter in the Sun Fire Midrange Systems Platform Administration Manual. This section describes how to recover from a hung or paused domain.
Examples
To reset the domain (from a domain shell), type the following (CODE EXAMPLE 3-28). This command uses XIR (externally initiated reset) to try to obtain diagnostic data.
CODE EXAMPLE 3-28 reset Command Example From Domain A
schostname:A> reset

restartssh
Restarts the SSH server.
Scope
Platform shell.
Syntax
restartssh [-h]
Options/Parameters
-h displays help for this command.
-y answers yes to the informational message. Does not prompt for confirmation.
-n answers no to the informational message. Does not execute the command if confirmation is required.
Description
To run this command, SSH must be enabled using the setupplatform command.
If you have generated new host keys using ssh-keygen, you must restart the SSH server before the new host keys can take effect. By restarting the server, the keys are loaded into memory and stored in the SSH server's dedicated memory structure.
When restarting the SSH server, all existing SSH connections are closed. The command posts an informational message, asking for confirmation before actually restarting the SSH server. You can skip confirmation by specifying the -y or -n switch.
If you have issued the command over an SSH connection, the connection terminates when the SSH server restarts. Since the process only takes seconds, you can re-establish the SSH connection immediately.

restoreconfig
Restores the platform and domain configurations from a server.
Scope
platform shell
Syntax
restoreconfig [-y|-n] -f url
restoreconfig -h
Options/Parameters
-h displays help for this command.
-y does not prompt for confirmation.
-n does not execute this command if confirmation is required.
-f specifies a URL, which must use the FTP protocol.
url is the directory containing the data files. The URL must point to a directory and not a file. Examples are:
ftp://userid:password@hostname//path
ftp://hostname/path
ftp://IPaddress/path
For details on FTP URLs, see Using FTP URLs.
Note - The hostname you enter can be the host name or a host name with a fully qualified domain name, such as hostname or hostname.eng.sun.com. You cannot use a partial domain name.
|
Description
Restores the platform and domain configurations from a server, using the two data files created by the dumpconfig command, schostname.nvci and schostname.tod.The files are located at the specified URL, which must point to a directory and use the FTP protocol. By default, the configuration data stored is encrypted. To restore the encrypted data, you will be prompted to enter the same password that was used (for encrypting the configuration data) when creating the dumpfile.
|
Caution - The dumpconfig command should have been executed when you set up the system. It is also used in the procedure for replacing a failed system controller in single-SC configurations. For general instructions on how to use dumpconfig, see "To Use dumpconfig to Save Platform and Domain Configurations" in the chapter "System Power On and Setup" in the Sun Fire Midrange Systems Platform Administration Manual.
|
This command requires that all domains be powered off with the setkeyswitch off command. The main and spare system controllers are automatically rebooted when the configuration is restored. The date and time must be set after the configuration has been restored and the system controller has been rebooted. You also need to activate all domains with setkeyswitch on, since this command restores all domains with the keyswitch in the off position.

Description
Sets the date and time for the platform and domains. This command, when invoked from the platform, will have no effect on the date and time in each domain and vice- versa. You can set up to five different times and time zones; one time and time zone for the platform and different times and time zones for each of the four domains.
If your time zone area is using daylight or summer time, this is set automatically.
Note - You cannot set the date from the system controller in a domain while the Solaris operating environment is running. To set the date while the Solaris operating environment is running, use the Solaris operating environment date command.
|
After you set the date and time, you can use the SNTP server to keep the date and time synchronized. For details, refer to the Sun Fire Midrange Systems Platform Administration Manual.

setdefaults
Sets the default configuration values.
|
Caution - This is a destructive command. Use with caution and care.
|
Scope
platform shell, domain shell
Syntax
setdefaults [-y|-n] [-c] [-p platform]
setdefaults -h
Options/Parameters--Platform Shell
-y does not prompt for confirmation. The option sets the defaults for the platform shell and each domain shell.
-n does not execute the command if confirmation is requested.
-c keeps Capacity on Demand (COD) right-to-use (RTU) license keys stored in the COD license database. This option does not preserve the number of any instant access CPUs (headroom) enabled and COD RTU licenses reserved for domains.
-h displays help for this command.
-p platform resets the defaults for the platform only.
Options/Parameters--Domain Shell
-y does not prompt for confirmation.
-n does not execute the command if confirmation is requested.
-h displays help for this command.
Description
|
Caution - This command requires that all domains are inactive (not running the OpenBoot PROM, POST, or the Solaris operating environment) and the keyswitch be set to off.
|
When you run this command from the platform shell without options, the platform and domain values are set to the default values. When you run this command from the domain shell without options, only the current domain values are reset to the default values.
If a password is set, you will need to type the password in order to set the default values. When you run this command from the platform shell, the password for the platform shell is required. When you run this command from a domain shell, the password for the domain shell is required. There are separate passwords for the platform shell and each domain shell.
In addition, this command does the following:
- Sets the system controller to the default values. This command resets only the system controller setting. It does not affect the domain's configuration in the OpenBoot PROM.
If a spare System Controller board is present, SC failover is automatically enabled. Otherwise, SC failover is disabled.
- Deletes all COD RTU licenses and resets the instant access CPU (headroom) quantity and domain COD RTU license quantity to zero (0), only if you do not specify the -c option.
- Erases all platform and domain configurations (platform).
- Removes passwords (domain and platform).
- Resets the connection type to none.
- Erases SSH host keys.
- Reboots both the main and spare system controllers after the defaults are set.
|
Caution - Make sure that you have a serial connection to the SC before running the setdefaults command. After setdefaults has been run, remote connectivity to the system controller is disabled. Once remote connectivity (either SSH or Telnet) has been disabled, your only access to the SC platform shell (and the setupplatform command) is through a serial connection.
|
Example
CODE EXAMPLE 3-38 setdefaults Example
schostname:SC> setdefaults
You are about to reset all configuration data to default values.
All domain configurations, ACLs, passwords,data buffers, network
settings, and SSH host keys will be lost.
The system controller will be REBOOTED after the defaults are set.
Do you want to restore the default values and reboot now? [no]
|

setescape
Set the sequence of characters used to switch from the Solaris or OpenBoot PROM prompt at the domain console to the system controller prompt at the domain shell.
Syntax
setescape escapechars
setescape -h
Options/Parameters
-h displays help for this command.
escapechars is the escape sequence, up to five alphanumeric characters in length. The default sequence is a pound sign (#) followed by a period (.), that is, #.
Description
Sets the sequence of characters used to switch from the Solaris or OpenBoot PROM prompt at the domain console to the system controller prompt at the domain shell.
If you are typing at the domain console and type the first character of the escape sequence. The default is the pound sign followed by a period (#.). There is a one second delay before the character appears on the screen. This delay occurs because the system waits for one second to see if the next character in the escape sequence is about to be typed. If the next character is typed, the system waits up to one second for the next character and so on. If you type all the characters in the escape sequence, the domain shell prompt appears. If you do not, the characters belonging to the escape sequence that were typed are output to the screen.
It is recommended that you choose an escape sequence that does not start with a sequence of characters that is frequently typed at the console, otherwise the delay between you typing the keys and the character appearing on the screen may be confusing and affect your typing.

showescape
Examples
To set the escape characters to ~~~.. type:
schostname:SC>setescape ~~~..
|
Note - To prevent confusion, avoid duplication of the escape sequences pre-defined in the OpenSSH protocol.
|
To reset the escape characters to #. (the default) type:`
schostname:SC>setescape "#."
|
Note - As # is the comment character for the platform shell and domain shell, the sequence must be enclosed in quotes.

Description
Each domain has a virtual keyswitch with five positions: off, standby, on, diag, and secure. The setkeyswitch command changes the position of the virtual keyswitch to the specified value. The virtual keyswitch replaces the need for a physical keyswitch for each domain.
If it is not possible to access the domain shell, set the keyswitch position for the domain to off from the platform shell. Setting the keyswitch position to off for a domain without first halting the Solaris operating environment may cause problems. If the domain is running the Solaris operating environment, the setkeyswitch command parameters off and standby require confirmation.
If the domain is already powered on, the setkeyswitch on, setkeyswitch diag, and setkeyswitch secure commands will change only the position of the virtual keyswitch. If components making up a domain such as a I/O assembly or CPU/Memory board need to be powered on, the system attempts to power on these boards or devices also.
When the keyswitch position changes to on, secure, or diag from any keyswitch position, the domain console is resumed.
If a failure occurred during keyswitch transition, the keyswitch position is reset to off or standby after recovering from the failure.
The system controller maintains the position of each keyswitch even during power failures or physical power cycles. When you power on the system after either a power failure or system power off, the system controller activates any domains that were active when the power went off.

setls
Sets the component location status.
Scope
Platform shell, domain shell
Syntax
setls -s new_status -l location
setls -h
Options/Parameters
-h displays help for this command.
-s new_status sets the location status of a component:
- enable - Enables the specified component location.
- disable - Disables the specified component location.
-l location specifies the component location:
- slot/port/physical_bank/logical_bank for a CPU/Memory board
- slot/port/bus for an I/O assembly
- slot/card for an I/O assembly
Description
Use this command to control whether components in a particular location are configured into a system. The location status of a component can be set to one of the following states:
- Enabled - The component residing in the specified location is configured into the system, subject to its component health status (CHS). For details on component health status, refer to the Sun Fire Midrange Systems Platform Administration Manual.
In some cases a disabled component cannot be re-enabled by using the setls command. If a a disabled component has a POST status of chs, as indicated in showcomponent command output, the component cannot be configured into the system. Contact your service provider for further service action.
- Disabled - The component residing in the specified location is not configured into the system.
Note - The location status is updated at the next domain reboot, board power cycle, or POST execution. For example, POST runs automatically whenever you perform a setkeyswitch on or off operation.
|
When you disable the location of a component, its subcomponent locations are also disabled. For example, if you disable the location of a CPU slot, the memory locations that are controlled by that CPU are also automatically disabled.
Similarly, when you enable the location of a component, its subcomponent locations are also enabled, except when the subcomponent locations were previously disabled on an individual basis by using the setls command. The subcomponent locations cannot be enabled automatically through the parent component location. Each subcomponent location must be enabled individually by using the setls command.
Note the following about the component location status:
- If a component location is disabled in the platform shell, that component location is also disabled in all domains.
The components in the disabled locations are not configured into the system.
- If a component location is disabled in a domain shell, that component location is disabled only in the domain.
The components in disabled locations are not configured into the system.
If you change the status of a component location in a domain, the change applies only to that domain. This means that if you move the component to another location or another domain, the component does not retain the same location status.
- If a component location is disabled in the platform, that component location cannot be enabled in the domains. Or, if a component location is disabled in a domain, that component location cannot be enabled in the platform.
In both situations, the components in the disabled locations are not configured into the system.
Component locations can be the following (see TABLE 3-6 and TABLE 3-7):
- Ports (CPU on a CPU/Memory board and I/O controller on an I/O assembly)
- Physical and logical memory banks
- I/O buses
- I/O cards

Note: The automatic reboot of a given domain can occur up to a maximum of three times. However, after the third time, the domain is paused when the system controller detects another hardware error on the domain. It is recommended that you contact your service provider for assistance rather than manually restart the domain.
|
|
false
|
The domain is paused when the system controller detects a hardware error. To recover, you must manually reset the domain (turn the domain off, then on by using the setkeyswitch command).

Table that describes the parameter values for the setupplatform command.HostID/MAC Address Swap Parameter
The HostID/MAC Address Swap parameter is displayed only when you specify the -p hostid option with the setupplatform command. This parameter enables you to swap the HostID and MAC address of one domain with another. For example, if you are running host-licensed software associated with a particular domain HostID and MAC address, but you need to run the host-licensed software on another domain, you can swap the domain HostID and MAC address with that of an available domain. You can then run the host-licensed software on the available domain without encountering license restrictions tied to the original domain HostID/MAC address. For details on using the HostID/MAC address swap, refer to the Sun Fire Midrange Systems Platform Administration Manual.
TABLE 3-10 describes the prompts displayed when you specify the
setupplatform -p hostid command. For an example of the output displayed, see CODE EXAMPLE 3-51:

showerrorbuffer
Shows the contents of the error buffer.
Scope
platform shell
Syntax
showerrorbuffer [-p [-n nnn]]
showerrorbuffer -h
Options/Parameters
-p displays the system error messages stored in the persistent system error buffer of SC V2s. This option applies to systems configured with SC V2s, which provide persistent storage of log messages and system errors.
-n nnn displays a specified number (where nnn is an integer) of error messages in chronological order. For example, -p -n 5 displays the last five error messages in the persistent system error buffer.
-h displays help for the command.
Description
This command captures error message information detected by the system hardware error registers and stores them in an error buffer.
All Sun Fire midrange systems have a dynamic showerrorbuffer that provides short-term storage of system error records. Once the system errors are recorded in the message log buffer, system error records are cleared automatically from the dynamic showerrorbuffer whenever more space is required.
Midrange systems configured with SC V2s have both dynamic and persistent showerrorbuffers. The persistent showerrorbuffer captures the system errors that occur and store the system error records until the showerrorbuffer is full. Once the persistent showerrorbuffer is full, any new system error records will overwrite the existing error records in the persistent buffer, starting with the records at the beginning of the buffer.
- If your system is configured with SC V2s, which feature a persistent error buffer, you can use the -p and -n options to display the messages stored in the persistent storage buffer. This information is maintained even after a system reboot occurs.
- Systems that have a small error buffer (where the SCs do not have enhanced memory) cannot maintain persistent error messages. However, if your domains are set to reboot automatically upon error, the output from the showerrorbuffer command displays errors messages that otherwise might be lost when your domains are rebooted.
You and your service provider can use this command to obtain information for troubleshooting purposes.

Description
Enables you to monitor the state of the SC and clock failover. The SC failover state can be one of the following:
- enabled and active - SC failover is enabled and functioning normally.
- disabled - SC failover has been disabled due to an operator request (setfailover off) or because a failover has occurred.
- enabled but not active - SC failover is enabled, but certain components, such as the spare SC or the centerplane between the main and spare, are not in a failover-ready state (available and responding).
- degraded - The SC failover status is degraded when both the main and the spare SC are running different firmware versions and the following conditions exist:
- The main SC has a higher firmware version than the spare.
- A board in the system can be controlled by the main SC but not the spare.
The clock failover state can be one of the following:

showkeyswitch -h
Syntax for the Domain Shell
showkeyswitch [-v]
showkeyswitch -h
Options/Parameters
-h displays help for this command.
-v is verbose mode.
-d domainID (platform shell only) is a, b, c, or d.
See Also
setkeyswitch, showdomain, showplatform
Description
Displays the keyswitch setting.
Examples

showlogs
Displays the system controller logged events stored in the system controller message buffer.
Scope
platform shell, domain shell
Syntax for the Platform Shell
showlogs [-d domainID] [-p [-f filter][-n nnn]] [-v]
showlogs -h
Syntax for the Domain Shell
showlogs [-v]
showlogs -h
Options/Parameters
-h displays help for this command.
-d domainID (platform shell only) specifies a domain (a, b, c, or d).
-p displays the log messages retained in persistent storage for systems configured with SC V2s.
-f filter indicates a certain type of log message is to be displayed, where filter is one of the following:
- alert - alert messages
- critical - critical messages
- emergency - emergency messages
- error - error messages
- fault - fault messages
- warning - warning messages
-n nnn displays a specified number nnn (integer) of messages in chronological order. For example, -p -n 5 displays the last five log messages stored.
-v is verbose.
Description
Displays the log messages for the platform and each domain that are stored in the dynamic buffer of the system. Message storage in this dynamic buffer is temporary:
- Once the dynamic buffer is filled, the old messages that are logged to the consoles are overwritten by the new messages (these are messages from the system controller, not the Solaris operating environment).
- The dynamic buffer is cleared when you reboot the system controller or when a loss in power occurs.
In systems with SC V2s, messages in the dynamic buffer that have the following severity levels are retained in persistent storage, and will survive a system reboot or loss in power: .alert, .error, .emerg, .warning, and .critical. If the persistent storage buffer becomes full, any new messages will wrap to the beginning of the buffer and the existing messages at the beginning of the buffer will be overwritten by the newest messages.
There is a separate log for each system controller in the platform and for each domain. If the loghost has been configured (the platform and each domain are configured separately--using the setupplatform command for the platform loghost and setupdomain for each domain loghost), then the messages will also be logged to the loghost for storage.

showresetstate
Shows that state of CPUs after a reset or a RED MODE trap.
Scope
domain shell
Syntax
showresetstate [-w | -s | -v] [-f url]
Options/Parameters
-w displays the contents of register windows. The first windows displayed in the output are the stack trace for the failing CPU. The windows that are not part of the stack trace follow in the same order.
-s displays the contents of the secondary save area. Normally, the command displays the contents of the primary save area that holds the registers from the time of the first failure. If more than one failure occurs on a CPU, the secondary save area holds the selected registers from the time of the last failure.
-v displays a summary of all available registers. Includes the registers available with:
- -s and -w options
- Default display (no options)
-f specifies a URL, which must use the ftp protocol.
url is the directory that will contain the output from this command. The output is stored in a file with a name in the format
hostname.resetstate.yymmddHHMMSS
and can be reviewed by Sun service providers to analyze a failure or problem. The URL must point to a directory and not a file. Examples are:
ftp://userid:password@hostname//path
ftp://hostname/path
For details on specifying ftp protocol URLs, see Using FTP URLs.
Description
Prints a summary report of the contents of registers from the save areas of every CPU in the domain that has a valid saved state. By specifying certain options, the format and content of the printed report can be controlled. The information displayed is used by your service provider for troubleshooting purposes.
With no options, the command displays the following registers:
- Register window (globals, outs, locals, ins) that was current at the time of the failure.
- CANSAVE, CANRESTORE, OTHERWIN, and other selected privileged registers.
- AFAR and AFSR.
- TICK and some related CPU-specific registers.
Since a CPU that does not have a saved state does not produce output, there is no output when CPUs are reset or have not failed. After a failure, the saved state is available until the domain restarts the OpenBoot PROM, either by rebooting the Solaris operating environment or by turning the virtual keyswitch from off to on.

showsc
Shows the system controller and clock failover status, version, and uptime.
Scope
platform shell
Syntax

showsc -h
Options/Parameters
-h displays help for this command.
-v is verbose mode.
Description
Shows the version of ScApp and the SC uptime.
Example
In CODE EXAMPLE 3-89, RTOS is the Real Time Operating System for the system controller and ScApp is the system controller application. Also, in this example the system controller description is followed by V2, which indicates that the system controller has enhanced memory.
CODE EXAMPLE 3-89 showsc Command

ssh-keygen
Generates Secure Shell (SSH) host keys or displays the SSH host key fingerprint.
Scope
Platform shell.
Syntax
ssh-keygen [-l] [-t <rsa|dsa>]
ssh-keygen [-r]
ssh-keygen [-h]
Options/Parameters
-l shows the host key fingerprint, default is RSA.
-t specifies the type of host key, default is RSA.
-r regenerates host key.
-h displays help for this command.
Description
Generates SSH host keys or displays the host key fingerprint on the SC.
When the SSH server has been enabled on the SC, the firmware checks whether an SSH host key exists. If not, the firmware generates (automatically) a pair of RSA private/public host keys. If you want DSA host keys on the SC, you must invoke ssh-keygen manually with the -t switch.
Once generated, new host keys take effect (get loaded into memory) after:
- The SSH server is (re-) enabled
- The system is rebooted and the SSH server is enabled
- The restartssh command is invoked while the SSH server is enabled
It is good security practice for well-managed machines to get new host keys periodically. If you suspect that the key has been compromised, you can run the ssh-keygen command to regenerate system host keys. Host keys, once generated, can only be replaced and not deleted. For newly generated host keys to take effect, the SSH server must be restarted, either by running the restartssh command or with a reboot.
Since host keys are large, 1 Kbyte in size, it is difficult to verify an entire host key. ssh-keygen can be used to display a host key fingerprint, which is the output of the md5 message-digest algorithm presented as a sequence of 16 octets printed as hexadecimal with lowercase letters and separated by colons. See CODE EXAMPLE 3-90.
Since host keys are stored on the SC, they get backed up with dumpconfig and can be restored by restoreconfig (By default, the dumpconfig command saves keys in encrypted format). When an SC failover occurs, the keys get copied to the redundant SC. In other words, the main SC and the redundant SC share the same set of SSH keys.
You can regenerate the host keys at any time by running ssh-keygen. If the host key already exists, you must specify the -r switch.

testboard
Tests the CPU/Memory board.
Scope
platform shell, domain shell
Syntax
testboard board_name
testboard -h
Options/Parameters
-h displays help for this command.
board_name is sb0-sb5 for CPU/Memory boards.
Description
Tests the CPU/Memory board name specified on the command line. This board cannot be used in an active domain and must be powered on. If running from a domain, the board must be assigned to the domain. The Repeater boards required to run the domain must also be powered on.
The testboard command runs tests at the levels set in the domain. Testing a CPU/Memory board is most accurately done when it is part of a domain. It is best if the CPU/Memory board can be tested by POST. However, if that is not possible, testing in the domain is the next best test.
|
Caution - When testing a CPU/Memory board that is assigned to a domain and the domain is active, there is a very slight possibility that problems can occur with the active domain. To prevent this from being a problem, unassign the board from the domain and test the board from the platform shell.
