3-2 SPARC Enterprise M4000/M5000 Servers Overview Guide • August 2009
3.1.2 PCI Hot-Plug
Both midrange servers support the insertion and removal of PCI cards while the
Solaris OS is running for certain PCI-Express and PCI-X slots. PCI cards must be
unconfigured and disconnected using the Solaris cfgadm(1M) command before the
cards can be physically removed. For additional information on PCI hot-plug
operations, refer to the SPARC Enterprise M4000/M5000 Servers Service Manual.
3.2 XSCF Firmware
Both midrange servers use the XSCF firmware to manage the system. The XSCF
firmware, which is preinstalled on the Service Processor at the factory, enables you
to configure, manage, and maintain system components.
This section describes:
■ XSCF User Interfaces
■ XSCF Features
3.2.1 XSCF User Interfaces
The interface for XSCF firmware is the command-line interface (CLI), which is also
called the XSCF Shell. The XSCF Shell provides the same commands as the XSCF
web to configure, monitor, and maintain system resources and services. The interface
can be established through a LAN connection or a serial connection.
You enter XSCF commands through a terminal on the service processor. For
descriptions of the XSCF commands and how they are used, refer to these manuals:
