Sun Microsystems V40Z Server User Manual


 
68 Sun Fire V20z and Sun Fire V40z Servers, Server Management Guide May, 2004
Network Share Volume (NSV) CD-ROM
A network share volume (NSV) structure is included with the server on the Sun Fire
V20z and Sun Fire V40z Servers Network Share Volume CD.
Although the SP functions normally without access to an external file system, a file
system is required to enable several features, including event log files, software
updates, diagnostics, and the troubleshooting dump utility. You can configure the
NSV to be shared among multiple SPs. Admin- and manager-level users can
configure the external file system; regular users can only view the current
configuration.
The following software components are included with the server:
Platform BIOS
SP base software
SP value-add software
Update file for downloading Java Runtime Environment (JRE) packages
Network share volume software, which includes diagnostics
Platform software
Motherboard platform drivers
All of these software packages are packaged with the NSV and are installed on the
file server when the external file system is installed and configured.
For instructions on extracting and installing the NSV software, refer to the Sun Fire
V20z and Sun Fire V40z Servers Installation Guide.
