Goal

To upgrade System Controllers (SC's) in a Sun Fire[TM] 12K/15K/E20K/E25K server, you must follow the steps detailed in the System Management Services (SMS) Installation Guide for your version of SMS.

When skipping versions (for example, if you upgrade from SMS version 1.2 to version 1.6,) the inbetween versions must be used to get to 1.4.1 and then with Patch ID 137195-01 you can go straight to version 1.6.

All existing SMS 1.5, 1.4.1, 1.4, 1.3, 1.2, and 1.1 users are encouraged to migrate to SMS 1.6 at this time.

  • Sustaining support for SMS 1.5 was discontinued effective July 30, 2008.
  • Sustaining support for SMS 1.4.1 was discontinued effective July 15, 2006.
  • Sustaining support for SMS 1.3 was discontinued effective October 5, 2005.
  • Sustaining support for SMS 1.4, 1.2, and 1.1 was discontinued effective June 9, 2004.
