XSCF COMMANDS

XSCF:

XSCF : eXtended System Control Facility
List of servers

Abbreviations and definitions

• IOU : I/O Unit

The IOU includes PCI slots.

• PSB : Physical System Board

The PSB includes at least 1 CPUM, 1 MEMB and 1 IOU on M4000 or M5000 server.
A M4000 server includes 1 PSB (PSB#00) and a M5000 server includes 2 PSB(PSB#00 and PSB#01).

• XSB : Extended System Board

The PSB is configured either in Uni-XSB mode or Quad-XSB mode.
In uni-XSB mode, the XSB are named XSB#XX-0.
In quad-XSB mode, the XSB are named XSB#XX-0, XSB#XX-1, XSB#XX-2 and XSB#XX-3
XX represents the PSB number.

• LSB : Logical System Board

Before adding an XSB to a domain, it is necessary to assign a number of LSB in the DCL (corresponding to the domain).

• DCL : Domain Component List

Each domain has his own DCL. Each DCL contains 16 LSB.

• DCU : Domain Configuration Unit

• XCP : XSCF Control Package

User

Update thefirmware

The firmware update is contained on only one image who is named XCP. Le nom du fichier represente le type de serveur :

• IKXCPxxyy.tar.gz pour les serveurs M3000 (Ikkaku)
• FFXCPxxyy.tar.gz pour les serveurs M4000-M5000 (Form Factor)
• DCXCPxxyy.tar.gz pour les serveurs M8000-M9000 (Data Center)

Verify the firmware version

XSCF> version -c xcp -v -t

Use one of this 2 methods :

• Download by ftp

XSCF> getflashimage -u root ftp://10.0.0.254/FFXCP1081.tar.gz

• Download by a usb key

XSCF> getflashimage file:///media/usb_msd/FFXCP1081.tar.gz

Install the firmware

XSCF> flashupdate -c check -m xcp -s 1081

XSCF> flashupdate -c update -m xcp -s 1081

Reboot the xscf

XSCF> rebootxscf

Solaris 10

After you finish to install the Solaris 10 OS, you must check that this 3 SMF services is started.

svc:/platform/sun4u/dscp:default

svc:/platform/sun4u/sckmd:default

svc:/platform/sun4u/dcs:default

Verify with the command ifconfig -a that the interface sppp0 exists :
