52 SPARC Enterprise Mx000 Servers Administration Guide • April 2007
Note – If you create a new domain, you have to install the Solaris OS on the
domain. Refer to the Solaris OS documentation collection for instructions.
Domain configuration typically includes these steps:
1. Log in to the XSCF console with appropriate privileges.
2. Specify the XSB mode, either Uni-XSB or Quad-XSB, using the setupfru
command.
3. Set up information for a domain (the DCL), using the setdcl command. The
DCL identifies the potential resources for a domain.
4. Assign the hardware resources (XSBs) to the domain, using the addboard
command. The DCL must be set up before assigning XSBs to a domain.
5. Power on the domain, using the poweron command.
(Step 5 and Step 6 may be done in reverse order.)
6. Open a console to the domain, using the console command.
7. If this is a new domain, at the OpenBoot PROM prompt, install the Solaris OS.
Refer to the Solaris OS documentation collection for instructions.
8. Set up any services you want to use on the domain, such as NTP. Refer to
Chapter 3 for information on services, including NTP.
Domain Configuration Example
This domain configuration example assumes one PSB in Uni-XSB mode will be set
up in Quad-XSB mode and configured into two domains. The domain configuration
will be:
domain0 = XSB#00-0 + XSB#00-2
domain1 = XSB#00-1 + XSB#00-3
XSCF> setupfru -x 4 sb 0
XSCF> showfru sb 0
Device Location XSB Mode Memory Mirror Mode
sb 00 Quad no
XSCF> setdcl -d 0 -a 0=00-0
XSCF> setdcl -d 0 -a 1=00-2
