Platform Notes: Ultra 450 Workstation and Ultra Enterprise 450 Server

Setting Disk Slot Associations

Perform the following procedure after you complete the hardware installation of the 8-bay storage expansion kits:

  1. Power on the system.

    See "How to Power On the System" in the Sun Ultra 450 Workstation Owner's Guide or Ultra Enterprise 450 Server Owner's Guide.

  2. When the system banner is displayed on the monitor, press Stop-a on the Sun keyboard.

    If you are using an alphanumeric terminal instead of a monitor, press the Break key on the terminal's keyboard.

  3. When the ok prompt is displayed, enter the following command:


    ok setenv disk-led-assoc 0 x y
    

    where:

    • x is an integer between 1 and 10 identifying the rear panel PCI slot number where the lower UltraSCSI controller is installed

    • y is an integer between 1 and 10 identifying the rear panel PCI slot number where the upper UltraSCSI controller is installed

    For example, if the controller cards are installed in PCI slots 5 and 7, enter the following:


    ok setenv disk-led-assoc 0 5 7
    

For a system with only one controller card installed in PCI slot 2, enter the following:


ok setenv disk-led-assoc 0 2

  1. Enter the following command at the ok prompt:


    ok reset
    

  2. When the system banner is displayed on the monitor, press Stop-a on the Sun keyboard.

    If you are using an alphanumeric terminal instead of a monitor, press the Break key on the terminal's keyboard.

  3. Enter the following command to perform a reconfiguration boot:


    ok boot -r
    

    This command rebuilds the device trees for the system, incorporating any newly installed options. After a device has been added to a device tree, it can be recognized by the system. After the reconfiguration reboot has successfully completed, the system prompt is displayed.
