Sun Blade 1000 Workstation Configuration Rules
■ You can install UltraSPARC III Cu modules into a Sun Blade 1000 workstation.
However, both modules must be identical UltraSPARC III Cu modules. If the
module types are mixed (not identical), the workstation will not boot.
■ Always install the first CPU module into CPU slot 0 (connectors J0501 and J0601).
■ If you install a second CPU module, install it into CPU slot 1 (connectors J0701
and J0801).
Sun Blade 2000 Workstation Configuration Rules
■ The Sun Blade 2000 workstation only operates with UltraSPARC III Cu CPU
modules.
■ If two Cu CPUs are installed, they must be identical speeds. For example, two
1.200 GHz Cu-C modules, or two 900 MHz Cu modules.
Identifying Cu CPU Modules
Identifying a CPU Module
There are three ways to identify a CPU module:
■ Type the correct prtdiag command in a terminal window.
■ Inspect the CPU module for an UltraSPARC III Cu label
■ Check the part number label. (This method requires you to remove the module
from the workstation and is not recommended unless absolutely necessary.)
Software Method
In a terminal window, type one of these commands:
/usr/platform/SUNW,Sun-Blade-1000/sbin/prtdiag
The system displays CPU information similar to

a. Turn on power to the monitor and to all external devices.
b. Press the power switch on the front panel and release it.
c. After several seconds, verify that the power-indicator LED on the power switch
is energized and listen to verify that the workstation fans are operating
(spinning).
