Solaris SPARC

On Solaris SPARC, the module produces partition information on Sun Enterprise/Sun Fire systems that support domains.

A domain is a part of a large hardware configuration usually comprising several distinct computers using a combination of CPU boards, memory, disk arrays, and other available resources. Thus, a domain can be considered as a separate encapsulated environment operating as a distinct computer. The system controller (SC) and the eXtended System Controller Facility (XSCF) manage the allocation of hardware resources for each domain. It also records and maintains the configurations and status of the domains hosted on a Sun server rack.

The following illustration represents the hardware arrangement that the AM remote agent supports for the Sun domains:
