Prepare to Remove an SPP (SPARC M7-16)
2.
Ensure that the SPMs on the SPP that you are removing are not managing
hardware.
This example shows how to check the state of both SPMs on SPP2. See “Oracle ILOM Paths
for SPMs” on page 122.
-> show /System/Other_Removable_Devices/Proxy_Service_Processors/
Proxy_Service_Processor_2/Service_Processor_Module_0 state_sp
Properties:
state_sp = OffDuty
-> show /System/Other_Removable_Devices/Proxy_Service_Processors/
Proxy_Service_Processor_2/Service_Processor_Module_1 state_sp
Properties:
state_sp = OffDuty
If the state reports OffDuty, neither of the SPMs on SPP2 are managing a DCU. Move to Step
4.
If the state reports Running, you must change the DCU PDomain assignment. For example, if
you want to remove SPP2 and it is currently running, you need to ensure that DCU2 is managed
by /SYS/SPP3/SPM0 and that DCU3 is managed by /SYS/SPP3/SPM1. See “Change Which SPP
Is Managing DCU Activity (SPARC M7-16)” on page 125.
3.
Determine your next step based on your server Oracle ILOM version.
SPARC M8-8 and SPARC M7 servers running Oracle ILOM version 4.0.x do not require you to
prepare the SPM for removal or verify that the SPMs and PCIe devices are offline.
Note - Always update your system firmware to latest available and supported version for
optimal performance, security, and stability.
■ For servers running Oracle ILOM version 4.0.x, or a future supported
version, go to Step 6.
■ For servers running Oracle ILOM version 3.2.x, continue to Step 7.
4.
(Oracle ILOM 3.2.x only) Prepare each SPM for removal.
-> set /System/Other_Removable_Devices/Proxy_Service_Processors/

action=prepare_to_remove
-> set /System/Other_Removable_Devices/Proxy_Service_Processors/
Proxy_Service_Processor_2/Service_Processor_Module_1
