CMIOU Configurations (SPARC M8-8 and SPARC M7-8 With One PDomain)
CMIOU Configurations (SPARC M8-8 and SPARC M7-8 With
One PDomain)
A SPARC M8-8 and SPARC M7-8 server that is configured as a single PDomain can have as
many as eight CMIOUs in a single CMIOU chassis, as listed in the following table.
The following configurations are supported on a SPARC M8-8 and SPARC M7-8 server that
has one PDomain.
■
CMIOU_0 and CMIOU_1
■
CMIOU_0 – CMIOU_2
■
CMIOU_0 – CMIOU_3
■
CMIOU_0 – CMIOU_4
■
CMIOU_0 – CMIOU_5
■
CMIOU_0 – CMIOU_6
■
CMIOU_0 – CMIOU_7
Note - The SPARC M7-8 server with one PDomain does not support SPARC M8 CMIOUs.
SPARC M7 CMIOUs are not supported in SPARC M8-8 servers. See “Mixed CMIOU
Configurations” on page 86 for more information.
For information about the PCIe slots that are available in each of these configurations, see
“Understanding PCIe Card Device and Service Paths” on page 143.
Caution - To prevent overheating, fill unused CMIOU slots with CMIOU filler panels.

CMIOU Configurations (SPARC M7-16)
A SPARC M7-16 server is divided into four DCUs that have two through four CMIOUs each.
CMIOUs CMIOU8–CMIOU15 are in the top CMIOU chassis, and CMIOUs CMIOU0–CMIOU7 are in
the bottom CMIOU chassis.
