C.7

eXtended System Control Facility Unit

The eXtended System Control facility unit (XSCFU or XSCF unit) contains the
service processor that operates and administrates the servers. It diagnoses and starts
the entire system, configures domains, offers dynamic reconfiguration, as well as
detects and notifies various failures.

The XSCF unit uses the eXtended System Control Facility (XSCF) software to
provide the following functions:

Controls and monitors the main unit hardware

Monitors the Solaris OS, power-on self-test (POST), and the OpenBoot PROM

Controls and manages the interface for the system administrator (such as a
terminal console)

Administers device information

Messages various events remotely

Interlocks power due to remote cabinet interface (RCI)

Note –

To use RCI, a SPARC Enterprise server or a device with an RCI port is

required.

Both midrange servers have one XSCF unit, which is serviced from the rear of the
system. To replace it, you must power off the server.

Refer to

“XSCF Unit Replacement” on page 9-1
