Configure Option ROM and I/O Space Allocation
96 Oracle X6 Series Servers Administration Guide • April 2016
■
For I/O space, the messages look like this:
Warning: Not enough IO address space allocated for
device path | address
Warning: Not enough IO address space allocated for device
device path | address
Warning: Not enough IO address space allocated for device
device path | address
Warning: Not enough IO address space allocated for device
device path | address
Warning: Not enough IO address space allocated for device
device path | address
Warning: Not enough IO address space allocated for device
device path | address
Each slot can generate several messages. This is normal.
It is possible that the device you added has been assigned option ROM and/or I/O space at the
expense of some other device. If this is the case, the device you added does not appear in the
list, but the original device does. This depends on the position of each device in the probe order.
3. Decide whether you need to configure option ROM or I/O space allocation for
one of the following reasons.
■
Error messages inform you that a device that you wish boot from has not been allocated
option ROM and/or I/O space.
■
You wish to be able to run a utility such as a RAID configuration utility on a device that has
not been allocated option ROM.
■
(Optional) You wish to make the error messages go away.
Note -
There is no need to configure option ROM or I/O space allocation simply because of
these messages, unless you require the functionality provided by the option ROM and the I/
O space.
