Chapter 2 XCP 1121 and XCP 1121-related Information 15
Updating to XCP 1121
To update your XCP to XCP 1121, please pay attention to the following points
depending on your current XCP version.
You can upgrade to XCP 1121 from XCP version 1050 or later. Refer to the SPARC
Enterprise M3000/M4000/M5000/M8000/M9000 Servers XSCF User’s Guide for
instructions.
Importing the XCP File
Once the XCP file is imported, update the firmware immediately. If the XCP file is
merely imported, the versions of the XSCF firmware and OpenBoot PROM firmware
running on the system remain the old ones. If the CPU/memory board unit or
motherboard unit is replaced or the XSCF unit is replaced/switched in this status,
the firmware of the unit cannot be matched with the original firmware version, and
attempts to replace/switch the unit or start the domain will fail.
Updating from a Version Earlier Than XCP 1050
(M8000/M9000 Servers)
■ You cannot update to XCP 1121 directly.
If you are currently running a version earlier than XCP 1050, you must first
update to an interim version of XCP between 1050 and 1070 (inclusive) before
updating to XCP 1121. Refer to the product notes document for instructions on
the interim version.
■ Delete any accounts named "admin".
Any accounts named admin must be deleted prior to updating to XCP 1050 or
later. This account name is reserved in XCP 1050 and later. Use the
deleteuser(8) command to delete the account.
Updating from a Version Earlier Than XCP 1070
(M8000/M9000 Servers)
■ After a firmware update from XCP 1061 or earlier to XCP 1070 or XCP 1071, both
the active and standby XSCFs enter the Halt state. To work around this problem,
be sure to reset the XSCFs after the firmware update, by using the rebootxscf(8)
command.
