Verifying the Hardware Installation
After you have installed the Sun 10-Gigabit Ethernet adapter, but before you boot
your system, perform the following tasks to verify the installation. Refer to the your
Solaris documentation for the detailed instructions.
Note – Verification is not required if your system supports dynamic reconfiguration
(DR). Verification is not supported if your system is running Solaris x86 software.
▼ To Verify the Hardware Installation
1. Power on the system, and when the banner appears, press the Stop-A key
sequence to interrupt the boot process and display the OpenBoot (
ok
) prompt.
2. List the network devices on your system.
Checking the
.properties
output for each device is the surest way to identify the
device. Usually
/pci@7c0/pci@0/pci@8
or
/pci@7c0/pci@0/pci@9
correspond
to PCIe slots, so look at those devices first.
Note – If you do not see the device listed, check that the adapter is properly seated.
If necessary, reinstall the adapter.
