The SPARC T5-8 server supports two configurations:
Fully-populated — four processor modules
Half-populated — two processor modules and two processor filler modules
Processor modules and processor filler modules are cold-service components that can be replaced only after you remove all power from the system. For the location of the processor modules, see Front Panel Components (Service).
Caution - This procedure requires that you handle components that are sensitive to electrostatic discharge. This discharge can cause server components to fail. |
This table contains the steps for upgrading the server to a fully-populated configuration. You can also view an animated demonstration of the upgrade process at:
