Preface
This document supplies the service provider with the information necessary to
replace SBus components with PCI components on a system board. The procedures
described here will require a senior service person with experience in major
component disassembly and assembly. Read the procedures throughly before
attempting to perform them. If you do not feel that you can do this, contact your
account management and request help.

Installing PCI Components on the
Sun Enterprise 10000 System
Introduction
This document provides you with the information necessary to replace SBus
components with PCI components on a system board. Before you can install PCI
components on a system board, that board must belong to a domain that has Solaris
2.6 or subsequent compatible version installed and the System Service Processor
(SSP) must be running SSP version 3.1 or subsequent compatible version. For
information about installing Solaris, refer to documentation that shipped with the
Solaris CD, which contains procedures for installing Solaris 2.6 on a new domain or
upgrading a domain to Solaris 2.6.
The board on which you wish to install the PCI components must be physically
removed from the system. However, if the system is up, and the domain to which
the board belongs is running, you must remove the board logically before you do so
physically.
This document contains the following sections to assist you with installing PCI
components on your Sun Enterprise 10000 system.
■ Powering off a system board
■ Removing a system board
■ SBus component removal
■ Personality plate replacement
■ PCI component installation
■ Installing a system board
■ Powering on a system board
1
Powering Off a System Board
1. Use hostview(1M) to verify that the system board is not part of a running
domain.
2. Turn off a system board by using hostview(1M) or by typing:
ssp# power -off -sb
where x = 0–15. Refer to power(1M) for more information.
x
Removing a System Board
1. Open the access door.
2. Attach a wrist strap.
Caution – If the yellow LEDs are lit, do not remove the component. See “Powering
Off a System Board” on page 2.
3. Remove all cables from the system board.
4. Unlock the handles by first lifting the locking levers that reside on each of the
handles.
5. Use the handles to extract the system board and place it on a flat, sturdy, grounded
mat with the component side up.
6. Unscrew the Phillips screws from the system board cover and remove the cover.

SBus Component Removal
Removing an SBus Card
1. Disengage the SBus card by pulling the handle up.
Caution – The connector housing could break if the SBus card is tilted too far.
2. Lift the SBus card from the socket at an angle while guiding the card out from the
personality plate opening (
3. Place the SBus card in an antistatic bag.

Personality Plate Replacement
Removing the SBus Personality Plate
1. Press the personality plate against the backside of the system board faceplate to
relieve the stress on the screws and remove the three screws securing the
personality plate (
Caution – The gasket puts force on the three attachment screws. This force must be
relieved while removing each screw to prevent the threads from becoming damaged
and rendering the personality plate useless.

Installing a PCI Riser Card
1. Confirm that the riser card is the correct voltage for the PCI card to be installed.
Installing PCI Components on the Sun Enterpr ise 10000 System9
Note – PCI cards and riser cards are available in multiple voltages. Inspect the
keyed connector on the PCI card to confirm that it will properly mate with the riser
connector. If not, obtain and install the correct riser card.
2. Insert the riser card into the mating connector on the PCI I/O module.
Press firmly to seat the riser card completely into the connector.
3. When installing the bottom riser, use the fastening hardware as shown in
FIGURE 10, and torque to a setting of 0.6 Nm (5.3 inch-pounds).

Note – PCI cards and risers cards are available in multiple voltages. Inspect the
keyed connector on the PCI card to confirm that it will properly mate with the riser
connector. If not, obtain and install the correct riser card.
5. Guide the PCI card from behind the system board faceplate, through the opening,
and place the PCI card edge into the mating connector. See

9. Replace the system board cover and secure with screws by tightening to a torque
setting of 0.8 Nm (7.1 inch-pounds).
Installing a System Board
1. To confirm that the event monitoring daemon is running, type:
ssp% edd_cmd
The returned message should show State = started-monitoring. If it does
not, you must restart the event monitoring daemon by typing the following:
ssp% edd_cmd -x start
Refer to edd(1M) and edd_cmd(1M) for additional information.
2. To install a system board, firmly grasp the board by the insertion handles and
position it onto the card cage rail.
3. With the handles extended, slide the board into the slot until it begins to mate
with the centerplane connector.
4. Apply firm pressure to the faceplate to engage the board with the centerplane
connector.
5. Use the insertion handles to fully seat the board.

6. Lock the handles by sliding the locking levers into position until they are fully
nested with the handles.
Powering On a System Board
1. Determine the amount of system power available by typing power.
