7. Verify/lock the system and partitions, create and mark the partitions, and send the
ODB to a floppy disk or tape, whichever is preferred.
8. Reboot the SCF in offline mode and load the new ODB.
9. Reboot the SCF in online mode, then reboot the 2200 node.
D.1.2. IX5000 Series or IX4800 Server Configuration
IX5000 Series or IX4800 servers need the following hardware components configured in
SCMS system inventory:
• A Power Domain (PWRD) with at least one CSIOP for the required FDDI and Ethernet
connections. The CSIOP is identified by Feature Name IOPM-CS under PWRD.
• Connect the FDDI/Ethernet channel adapters to Bus0 of physical IOP0 in Power
Domain 0.
• An FDDI control unit (CS-FDDI) to provide the 2200 connection to the FDDI port in
the Intel node. This control unit must be named FDDIVI for proper OS 2200
identification. With that name, SCMS automatically names the devices as HLVI01
(address=1 type=output) and HLVI02 (address=2 type=input). Do not change those
names. No parameter changes are needed in System_Connect/Subsystem.
Add additional control units for additional Intel nodes, as needed, and name them as
follows:
− FDDIVJ (device names HLVJ01 and HLVJ02 are generated by default) for control
unit 2
− FDDIVK (device names HLVK01 and HLVK02 are generated by default) for control
unit 3
− FDDIVL (device names HLVL01 and HLVL02 are generated by default) for control
unit 4
