TABLE 3-8Description of the setkeyswitch Transition

Value

Description

 

 

off

Changes the board state of all the boards belonging to a domain to the

 

Assigned board status, and places the boards in low-power mode, which

 

allows you to remove the boards from the system. The domain will not be

 

initialized at system power on.

standby

Changes the board state of all the boards belonging to a domain to the

 

Assigned board state and turns on the boards. The domain will not be

 

initialized at system power on, but the boards that comprise the domain will

 

be powered on.

on

Powers on and initializes the domain. The system controller brings the

 

domain into OpenBoot PROM through POST. If the OpenBoot PROM has

 

auto-boot?set to true, then the Solaris operating environment boots

 

automatically.

diag

Similar to the setkeyswitch on command except the POST verbose mode

 

is set to on and the POST diagnostic level is set to maximum.

secure

Similar to the setkeyswitch on command except that the break command

 

and the reset commands are ignored. CPU/Memory board and

 

I/O assembly flash PROM updates are not allowed.

 

 

TABLE 3-9shows the results when you change a keyswitch setting.
