M3000 + XVR-300
in [Solaris]

From: Fabian Schmidt on 8 Sep 2009 13:01 I'm trying to use an XVR-300 graphics adapter in a Sparc Enterprise M3000. This results in the error below. Could someone confirm I have to connect the keyboard to a USB Inferface Card instead of the provided USB port as suggested by osakana in http://forums.sun.com/thread.jspa?threadID=5378741 ?

Hi Fabian Just remembered Sun used to have a preferred I/O slot for graphic cards, is there anything in the documentation? If not try the highest numbered PCI-e slot.

Thanks for your hint. While reading the documentation I found: - in some servers the graphics adapter does not work in slot 0 without a recent OBP version, but there are no restrictions in Mx000 systems - the USB port is connected to the XSCF (mgmt. unit) only: "This USB port is dedicated for use by field engineers and cannot be connected to general-purpose USB devices." Looks like I have a spare graphics adapter now :-/ Fabian. |
