Fujitsu M10 series servers support the Oracle Flash Accelerator F160 PCIe Card as a boot device.
For more information about the servers, refer to the server documentation at http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E38160_01/.
For the Fujitsu M10-1 Server, to use the Oracle F160 Flash Card, the following SRU and XCP must be applied:
SRU: SRU 11.2.14.4.0 or later
XSCF: XCP 2260 or later
When the Oracle F160 Flash Card is to be mounted in the PCI expansion unit, a PCI expansion unit firmware version 1210 or later must be applied in addition to the above XSCF XCP 2260 or later.
For details on the application of firmware, refer to the PCI Expansion Unit section of the Fujitsu M10/SPARC M10 Systems Service Manual.
For Fujitsu M10-4 and Fujitsu M10-4S Servers, to use the Oracle F160 Flash Card, the following SRU and XCP must be applied.
SRU: SRU 11.2.14.4.0 or later
XSCF: XCP 2260 or later
When the Oracle F160 Flash Card is to be mounted in the PCI expansion unit, a PCI expansion unit firmware version 1210 or later must be applied in addition to the above XSCF XCP 2260 or later.
In addition, when the PCI expansion unit is to be assigned to a Guest domain while Direct I/O for the PCI expansion unit is unused, perform static allocation and set nvramrc as shown in the following example.
{0} ok nvedit
0: d# 10000 ms (quit by Control+C after return)
{0} ok nvstore
{0} ok setenv use-nvramrc? True
The nvramrc setting is not required when XCP 2290 or later is to be applied.
For details on the application of firmware, refer to the PCI Expansion Unit section of the Fujitsu M10/SPARC M10 Systems Service Manual.
