Sun M5000, xscf showdevices questions
Hi,

I've configured this Sun M5000 to use two system domains (added a second domain to it). The following is the info about the settings. The showdevices command can't show devices on domain 1 because Solaris is not loaded on it yet.

My question: How can I confirm the hardware devices such as HDD and memory (memory modules) assigned to domain 1? It is obvious that the system board 01 is assigned to domain 1. Is this confirmation good enough? Will showhardconf shows all the info (I am checking it out now)?

Thank you in advance!

Code:
XSCF> showdcl -a

in this configuration, half of the cpu and memory boards are in domain 1 (if 4 cpu and 8 memory modules are inside the server).
domain 0 will have the other half... Smilie

2 hdds and the dvd- and tape-drive will also belong to domain 0.
the other 2 hdds will belong to domain 1.
also every domain has one IOU board.

Prove these:

"2 hdds and the dvd- and tape-drive will also belong to domain 0.
the other 2 hdds will belong to domain 1."

Memory modules as well.

thats the configuration if you use two domains... no need to prove this. there is no command to do this from XSCF level. you can check from OBP after bringing up the domain.
