Controlling hpost/bringup When running bringup / hpost, it is often desirable to control how hpost behaves under certain circumstances. A very powerful configuration file for hpost is ~ssp/.postrc with a few of the options for this file listed below: Where N is a number between 1 and 127. Do not set level N the level lower than the normal of 16. Doing so subverts the intent to boot only systems with a low likelihood of undetected hardware problems. logfile [path] Create a screen logfile. Permit POST to configure memory so that two boards with identical amounts of memory are interleaved in mem_board_interleave_ok256-byte blocks through a common address range. Interleaving will improve performance but may cause an interleaved board from being able to be dr'd. no_memory_ok Allows POST to continue on a domain where no memory is present. no_procs_ok Allows POST to continue on a domain with no processors. no_scards_ok Allows POST to continue on a domain with no I/O cards. skip_phase phase_name Skip the named POST phase. To print the available phase names, execute hpost -?postrc. skip_test test_id Skip the designated test. Consult the postrc man page for more information on this configuration file. stephane.petit@central.sun.com
