SP Settings Might Revert to Factory Defaults After an
Unsaved Update from the Web GUI or CLI
When updating the SP from the server management web GUI or CLI, be sure to use
the SaveFlag (CLI) or Save Configuration (web GUI) commands to save the updated
information. If not, the factory default settings will be used instead. For example, if
static IP addressing is configured for the SP and a future update to the SP
configurations was not saved, the SP may revert to the default of DHCP addressing.
Minimum Supported Version for a Remote Sparc System
When running the web GUI from a Sparc-based system, Solaris 10 OS is the
minimum version that is supported.
