  9. 5.4.4 Inactive/Cold Addition Workflow of Memory

5.4.4 Inactive/Cold Addition Workflow of Memory


5.4.4 Inactive/Cold Addition Workflow of Memory
You can perform inactive/cold addition of memory in the following configuration:
  1. Building block configuration where two or more physical partitions are operating
Table 5-16 shows the workflow for inactive/cold addition of memory.
Table 5-16  Inactive/Cold Addition Procedure of Memory
Work Order Task Reference
1 Checking the operating condition of the system "9.2.1 Checking the Operation Status of Physical Partitions and Logical Domains"
2 Powering off the physical partition containing the SPARC M12-2S requiring maintenance "9.5.1 Stopping a Specific Physical Partition"
3 Switching the mode switch on the OPNL to Service "2.3.2 OPNL Control Function"
4 Releasing the SPARC M12-2S requiring maintenance from the building block configuration, and removing the power cords "9.6.1 Releasing the SPARC M12-2S From the Building Block Configuration"
"9.8.2 Removing the Power Cords"
5 Removing the CMU from the SPARC M12-2S "17.4 Removing the CMU or Memory"
6 Installing memory in the CMU and installing this unit in the SPARC M12-2S "17.5 Installing the CMU and Memory"
7 Installing the power cords on the SPARC M12-2S with the added memory, and incorporating it into the building block configuration "10.1.1 Installing a Power Cord"
"10.4.1 Incorporating the SPARC M12-2S Into a Building Block Configuration"
8 Diagnosing the SPARC M12-2S with the added memory (*1) "10.5.1 Diagnosing the SPARC M12 Hardware"
9 Diagnosing the XBU and crossbar cable of the SPARC M12-2S with the added memory "10.5.2 Diagnosing the XBU and Crossbar Cable"
10 Confirming that there is no problem with the added memory "10.5.3 Checking the FRU Status After Maintenance"
11 Switching the mode switch on the OPNL to Locked "2.3.2 OPNL Control Function"
12 Powering on the physical partition of the expanded memory "10.9.1 Starting the System With an XSCF Command"
13 Assigning the resources of the expanded memory to logical domains "3.2 Operations and Commands Related to Logical Domain Configurations" in the Fujitsu SPARC M12 and Fujitsu M10/SPARC M10 Domain Configuration Guide
*1 If the memory was added to a SPARC M12-2S with no PCIe cards mounted, no diagnosis is necessary (because diagnosis was performed in the previous step).
