Java is reconfig reboot necessary?
Hi,

I wanted to know if a reconfig reboot is necessary from the ok prompt when am changing the CPU or a simple boot command would also work...?

Thanks in advance.

As far as I know both ways will work on modern versions of Solaris 10 , But in case of major hardware changes such CPUs run into reconfiguration boot

This is actually regarding just CPU change because of bad CPU. We are bringing down the server for this, so wanted to know if reconfiguration reboot is to be done.

reconfig reboot
will reboot -- -r update boot_archive ?

this is the what I see on my console.

# reboot -- -r
15+0 records in
15+0 records out
syncing file systems... done

It doesn't say updating /platform/sun4u/boot_archive as it displayed on my console after init 0or init 6 ?

you don't need to make a reconfig boot!

there are few ways to make a reconfig boot
- touch /reconfigure
- reboot -- -r
- at the ok prompt type: boot -r

but, again, in this case you don't need do make a reconfig!
