(*1) The replacement of the kernel memory board is not supporting on the redundant system which used the SynfinityLink 2.2 and the PRIMECLUSTER GLS 4.0.

(*2) The below machines have an Onboard LAN interface (hme).
- PRIMEPOWER 800/1000/2000, 900/1500/2500

(*3) Patch 912785-05 or later is needed.

(*4) The replacement and expansion are supported only on the Redundant Line Control Function.

(*5) When using the PRIMECLUSTER GLS 4.0 Multipath Function, patch 911872-03 or later is needed.

(*6) When using the "FUJITSU PCI Quad 10/100 Ethernet 1.0," patch 912216-09 or later is needed.

(*7) The driver version 1.4.1 or later and the patch 912214-03 or later are needed.

(*8) When using Solaris 8, the patch 114536-03 or later is needed.
When applying the patch 114536-03 or later, if the patch 912314-01 or later has applied, it is necessary to remove the patch. When removing the patch 912314-01 or 912314-02, the /platform/sun4us/kernel/drv/fjgi.conf file, which defines fjgi interface settings, will be replaced. If you have edited fjgi.conf, please make a backup copy of fjgi.conf beforehand and pick up your own settings and add them to the new one after removing the patch if necessary.

(*9) When using Solaris 9, the patch 114994-03 or later is needed.
When applying the patch 114994-03 or later, if the patch 912660-01 or later has applied, it is necessary to remove the patch. When removing the patch 912660-01 or 912660-02, the /platform/sun4us/kernel/drv/fjgi.conf file, which defines fjgi interface settings, will be replaced. If you have edited fjgi.conf, please make a backup copy of fjgi.conf beforehand and pick up your own settings and add them to the new one after removing the patch if necessary.

(*10) System rebooting is needed for hot expansion.

(*11) When PCI card is InfiniBand, please refer to "BLASTBAND GUIDE" for the procedure for replacement and expansion.

(*12) Patch 913294-03 or later is needed.

(*13) PRIMECLUSTER GLS 4.1A40 or later is necessary for Solaris 10.

(*14) 912680-04 or later is necessary, if Enhanced Support Facility 2.3 is used on Solaris 9.

(*15) 913371-01 or later is necessary, if Enhanced Support Facility 2.4 or 2.4.1 is used on Solaris 9.

(*16) 913732-02 or later is necessary, if Enhanced Support Facility 2.5 or 2.5.1 is used on Solaris 9.
