I/O Connections to CMP/Memory
Modules

Each PCIe slot and onboard I/O device is connected to one CMP module. Device
address is dependent on system configuration. See

TABLE: Devices controlled by

CMPs in 2P systems on page 164

and

TABLE: Devices controlled by CMPs in 4P

systems on page 165

for more information.

If a CMP module fails, the onboard devices and slots directly connected to it become
unavailable. Recovery of the I/O services connected to the failed CMP requires I/O
node reconfiguration.

For example, in a 4P system, if CMP0 goes offline, the following devices become
unavailable:

■

PCIe0

■

PCIe1

■

Onboard hard drives

In this failure scenario, the system is unable to boot from internal drives.

Similarly, if CMP1 goes offline, the following devices become unavailable:

■

PCIe4

■

PCIe5

■

Onboard network devices
