Hardware Documentation Updates for the M3000 Server
For current XCP compatibility information, see Hardware, Firmware, and Software Compatibility.
For information about upgrading your firmware, see the SPARC Enterprise M3000/M4000/M5000/M8000/M9000 Servers XSCF User's Guide.
Note - After upgrading XCP firmware, use the rebootxscf(8) command to reset the XSCF.
To complete updating the OpenBoot PROM (OBP) firmware in the target domain, restart the domain as soon as possible after completing the update.
If your server is running firmware older than XCP 1050, you cannot directly upgrade to this XCP release. You must first upgrade to an interim version of XCP (between 1050 and 1070, inclusive). Contact your Oracle representative for access to older XCP releases.
Note - Use the deleteuser(8) command to delete any accounts named admin prior to updating to XCP 1050 or later. The admin account name is reserved starting in XCP 1050.
If your M8000/M9000 server is running firmware older than XCP 1082, execute the rebootxscf(8) command from the Active XSCF to reset both it and the Standby XSCF before upgrading to this XCP release.
On a domain that has been in operation during an update from an XCP version between XCP 1050 and 1070 (inclusive), when you perform dynamic reconfiguration (DR) to add or replace the SPARC64 VII processors, you need to update the OpenBoot PROM firmware. The OpenBoot PROM firmware is updated as you update the XCP and restart the domain. For this reason, restart all the domains after you update the firmware to the latest XCP release, regardless of whether you added or replaced the SPARC64 VII processors.
Downgrading your XCP firmware to an earlier release would remove improvements and corrections provided in the latest release and could lead to a system failure due to mismatched dependencies. However, if you must downgrade your XCP release, execute the following command afterward to clear old-style audit logs:
XSCF> restoredefaults -c xscfu
