Understanding the Software Configurations
■
Two sockets for the Large Domain, one socket apiece for the first three Small Domains,
three sockets for the fourth Small Domain
■
Two sockets for the Large Domain and the for the first Small Domain, one socket apiece
for the second and third Small Domains, two sockets for the fourth Small Domain
■
Config F6-1 (Two Medium Domains, four Small Domains): The following options are
available for CPU and memory resource allocation:
■
Two sockets for the first Medium Domain, one socket apiece for the four Small
Domains, two sockets for the second Medium Domain
■
Three sockets for the first Medium Domain, one socket apiece for the four Small
Domains and the second Medium Domain
■
One socket apiece for the first Medium Domain and the four Small Domains, three
sockets for the second Medium Domain
■
Config F7-1 (One Medium Domains, six Small Domains): Two sockets for the Medium
Domain, one socket apiece for the six Small Domains
■
Config F8-1 (Eight Small Domains): One socket for each Small Domain
Management Network
The number and type of 1-GbE host management ports that are assigned to each Small Domain
varies, depending on the CPU that the Small Domain is associated with:
■
CPU0: NET0-1
■
CPU1: NET1, NET3 (through virtual network devices)
■
CPU2: NET0, NET2 (through virtual network devices)
■
CPU3: NET1, NET3 (through virtual network devices)
■
CPU4: NET0, NET2 (through virtual network devices)
■
CPU5: NET1, NET3 (through virtual network devices)
■
CPU6: NET0, NET2 (through virtual network devices)
■
CPU7: NET2-3
10-GbE Client Access Network
One PCI root complex pair, and therefore one 10-GbE NIC, is associated with the Small
Domain on the SPARC T5-8 server in the Full Rack. Both ports are used on each dual-ported
10-GbE NIC, and both ports on each 10-GbE NIC would be part of one IPMP group. Both ports
from each dual-ported 10-GbE NIC is connected to the 10-GbE network for the Small Domains.
The following 10-GbE NICs and ports are used for connection to the client access network for
the Small Domains, depending on the CPU that the Small Domain is associated with:
