Note – The
domain_switch
(1M) command must be executed from a C shell. By
default, the SSP window is a C shell.
9. Check for blacklisted components.
If SBus boards have been added to a system board, confirm that the processors on
those system boards are not blacklisted. Processors are blacklisted at the factory
when a system board does not have SBus cards installed.
During the bring-up process, observe the list of blacklisted components.
Alternatively, for instructions on how to retrieve the blacklist file, refer to the
blacklist
(1M) man page.
To remove a processor from the blacklist, edit the blacklist file and remove the
number of the board from the
pc
line in the file. By default, the blacklist file resides
at
$SSPVAR/etc/
platform_name
/blacklist
; however, the location of the blacklist
file can be reconfigured so that the location of the blacklist file on your server may
be different from the default location.
You are done setting up the SSP as a boot server. You can now bring up the domain,
as described in the next section.

To Bring Up the Domain
1. Bring up the domain.
If this is the first domain to be brought up, you will be prompted to configure the
centerplane. Type y to continue if you are sure that no other domains are running.
Responding yes resets the entire platform; therefore, you must ensure that no other
domains are running.
After a few minutes the SSP prompt is displayed. Review the output of the
bringup
(1M) command. If errors occurred, you must correct those errors before you
proceed. If no errors occurred, continue to the next step.
ssp% bringup -A off
This bringup will configure the Centerplane. Please confirm (y/n)? y
