12 System Controller (SC) Board
The SC (System Controller) board is a hot-swappable Single Board Computer (SBC).
It provides management interface to the Mediant 8000 and is responsible for system
configuration, status monitoring and high-availability operation.
Two SC boards are provided for high-availability and are installed in slots 1 and 2
(color coded red).
The following hardware revisions of the SC Boards are available:
SC Rev.1 – first-generation SC board based on SUN CP2300 SBC, runs SUN
Solaris OS
SC Rev.2 – second-generation SC board, uses Intel CPU and runs Linux OS
SC Rev.2 boards are supported starting from version 5.8 of the Mediant 8000
software. Note however that you may not install SC boards of different hardware
revisions in the same chassis and you should use the software installation disk that
matches the revision of SC boards installed in your Mediant 8000 chassis (see
'Installing the Mediant 8000 Software' on page 129 for details).
