E.2.3 Selecting the System Master Board
Note – The system master board must have the highest-revision Open Boot
PROM (OBP). Also, if your system has OBP patches stored in NVRAM, these
must be erased before assigning a board having different revision OPB as
system master. This is required because OBP patches are PROM-version
specific. Use the
set-default nvramrc
command at the OPB
ok
prompt to
erase patches before powering down the system for board reassignment.
Determine which board is the candidate to become the system master. Before
installing a given board:
1. Determine the dash-revision level of Boot PROMs installed on the board.
The level is expressed by the last two digits in the part number, as in:
525-xxxx-yy where “yy” conveys the dash-revision level.
2. Likewise, examine other system boards installed (or to be installed) in the
card cage to determine the dash-revision level of PROMs on these boards.
3. Identify the board to be system master:
If a board has a higher dash-revision level Boot PROM than the others, it
must be the system master.
If two or three have higher levels, than one from that pool of boards must be
the system master.
4. Install the candidate-board into slot 0 as system master.
