System Administrationshowboards(1m)


NAME

 showboards - show the assignment information and status of the boards

SYNOPSIS

 showboards [-d domain_id|domain_tag] [-v ]
 showboards -h

DESCRIPTION

 

showboards(1M) displays board assignments. If domain_id| domain_tag is specified, this command displays which boards are assigned or available to the given domain. If the -v option is used, showboards displays all components, including domain configuration units (DCUs) such as cpus, dpus, iobds, csbs and exbs, as well as the system controller (SC) are not DCUs.

OPTIONS

 

The following options are supported.

-d domain_id
ID for a domain. Valid domain_ids are 'A'...'R' and are case insensitive.
-d domain_tag
Name assigned to a domain using addtag(1M).
-h
Help. Displays usage descriptions. Note – Use alone. Any option specified in addition to -h is ignored.
-v
Verbose. Displays all components including DCUs.

EXTENDED DESCRIPTION

 

Group Privileges Required

 

You must have platform administrator, platform operator, platform service privileges or domain administrator, or domain configurator privileges for the specified domain to run this command.

Refer to Chapter 2 in the System Management Services (SMS) 1.2 Administrator Guide for the Sun Fire 15K/12K Systems for more information.

Platform administrator privileges:

  • If no options are specified, showboards displays all components including those DCUs that are assigned or available.
  • If domain_id|domain_tag is specified, showboards displays information on DCUs that are assigned and available to that domain. DCUs assigned to other domains are not displayed.
  • If the -v option is provided, showboards displays information on all assigned or available DCUs. In addition, showboards displays information on all other components.
  • If domain_id|domain_tag and the -a option are specified, showboards displays information on DCUs that are assigned or available to that domain. In addition, showboards displays information on all other components. DCUs assigned to other domains are not displayed.

Domain administrator/configurator privileges:

  • If no options are specified, showboards displays all boards for all domains for which you have privileges, including those DCUs that are assigned or available.
  • If domain_id|domain_tag is specified, showboards displays information on DCUs that are assigned or available to that domain. DCUs assigned to other domains are not displayed. Available DCUs are those boards which are in the domain's available component list See setupplatform(1M) and showplatform(1M). You must have domain administrator or configurator privileges for the specified domain.
  • The -v option is not available to this user.

States in the Pwr Field

 

The Pwr field contains one of three measurements:
On= Full voltage detected
Off= No voltage detected
Min= Some voltage detected
Unk= Unknown. Unable to determine board power on state
--= The slot is empty so power state is not applicable

Min does not imply that the board may be used at this point only that some power was detected on the board. It should not be used until it has been powered on. Conversely, it should not be removed from the system before being powered off.

The Board Status field contains one of four values:
Active= The board is assigned to a domain and has passed POST
Assigned= The board is assigned to a domain
Available= The board is available to be assigned to a domain
--= Domain assignment or activity is not applicable for this board

The Test Status field contains one of six values:
Passed= The board passed POST
Degraded= The board is in a degraded mode
Failed= The board failed POST
iPOST= The board is in POST
Unknown= The board has not been tested
--= The test status for this board is unavailable

The Domain field contains one of four values:
domain_id= ID for a domain
domain_tag= Name assigned to a domain using addtag(1M)
Isolated= The board is not assigned to any domain
--= Domain assignment is not applicable for this board

The following example illustrates showboards output if you have domain privileges for domains B, J, and R on a Sun Fire 15K System. showboards displays information for those boards which are assigned or available to domains B, J, and R. Boards which are assigned to other domains or do not appear in the available component list for domains B, J, or R are not displayed.

In the following example, showboards displays output if you have domain privileges on domains B, J and R on a Sun Fire 15K System. The command shows board information for those DCUs which are assigned or available to the specified domain. DCUs which are assigned to other domains or do not appear in the specified domain's available component list are not displayed.
