Restarting the system
To restart the system:
1. Turn on any external SCSI devices, starting with the device that is farthest from the
system and working toward the system.
2. Turn on the system monitor.
3. Turn on the system.
This reboots the system so that it recognizes the new configuration.
4. When the system comes back up, log in as root.
5. Enter:
/usr/platform/‘uname -m‘/sbin/prtdiag -v | pg
The new memory size, memory configuration, and CPU configuration are displayed.
6. Verify that the memory size that is displayed is correct, and compare it to the value that
you recorded before you added the new memory. If the new memory size is not
correct, shut down the system, turn off the power, and verify that all the memory
modules are properly seated.
