SP Firmware and Configuration
Before replacing an SP, save the configuration using the Oracle ILOM backup utility. Refer to
the Oracle ILOM documentation for instructions on backing up and restoring the Oracle ILOM
configuration.
Note - If TPM is initialized on a SPARC M7-8 or SPARC M7-16 server, use the tpmadm
failover command to backup TPM data and keys automatically to the Standby SP. You can
use the backed up TPM data and keys on the new SP for a system migration or hardware
replacement. For information about enabling failover when you initialize TPM, see Securing
Systems and Attached Devices in Oracle Solaris 11.3.
After replacing an SP, the SP firmware, the host firmware, and the configuration will be
restored from the existing Active SP to the new SP.
Note - For information about firmware updates and the associated .pkg files that could be
needed after replacing this component, go to My Oracle Support https://support.oracle.com
