Depending the blade server’s hardware configuration, the Sun Netra CP3260 blade server can be used as a diskless client with the Solaris OS installed on a boot server (see Section 3.3, “Installing as a Diskless Clients” on page
3.2Configuring Payload OS NIU Driver for Multiplexing to Zones 2 and 3
The MUX configuration by system management software and payload driver configuration must be in sync for proper functioning of both 10Gbps Ethernet (nxge) interfaces. The payload driver relies on the driver configuration file (nxge.conf) to initialize interfaces to either Zone 2 (backplane) or Zone 3 (ARTM). The driver uses

For default installations, the nxge driver is in the /platform/sun4v/kernel/drv directory.
The following examples show how to configure zone/link speed in the nxge driver file for Zone 2 and Zone 3 connectivity when using the Solaris OS.
CODE EXAMPLE 3-1 Zone 2 Connectivity (Both nxge Ports)
name = "SUNW,niusl" parent = "/niu@80"
name = "SUNW,niusl" parent = "/niu@80"

CODE EXAMPLE 3-2 Zone 3 Connectivity (Both nxge Ports)
name = "SUNW,niusl" parent = "/niu@80"
name = "SUNW,niusl" parent = "/niu@80"
