3. Mixing UltraSPARC III and UltraSPARC III Cu is not supported.
4. The USIII socket changed from Tyco to Cinch in October 2003.
5. Alternate sockets from Foxcon and Teledyne were added in December 2003.
6. Part numbers 540-5051 and 540-5821 changed to 540-6078 in December 2003.
7. Part numbers 540-5052 and 540-5825 changed to 540-6079 in December 2003.
8. Part numbers 540-5623 and 540-5795 changed to 540-6080 in December 2003.
9. Part numbers 540-5267 and 540-5799 changed to 540-6081 in December 2003.
10. Part number 540-5691 changed to 540-6082 in December 2003.
11. Part number 540-5605 changed to 540-6083 in December 2003.
12. 900MHz UniBoards 540-4934 and 540-4992 were reworked to 1200MHz UniBoard 559-0069.
13. Refer to the Install.info file of any Firmware patch for information on firmware verification and compatibility.

SF3800 - SF6800 Notes

1. The minimum operating system is Solaris 8 10/01 for 900Mhz, 1050MHz, and 1.2GHz CPUs.
2. The minimum hot swap upgrade OS is Solaris 8 02/02 for all supported CPU speeds.
3. The minimum firmware level for 900MHz and 1050MHz UltraSPARC III Cu is given as 5.12.5 in 816-3798-10 (November 2001), and 5.12.7 in 816-3798-11 (August 2002) and 816-3798-12 (February 2003).
   
4. The minimum firmware level for 1200MHz UltraSPARC III Cu is given as 5.13.2 in 816-3798-12 (February 2003).
   But a minimum firmware level of 5.13.5 or 5.14.4 is recommended.
5. The minimum firmware for UltraSPARC III Cu 1.1 is 5.13.5 or 5.14.4.
6. Capacity On Demand Uniboards require >= 5.14.0.
7. The minimum firmware level for 900MHz UltraSPARC III Cu 2.3 is 5.12.7.
   (UltraSPARC III Cu 2.3 is on FRUs 540-5821-01 and 540-5825-01).
8. CPU/Memory Board slots are labeled SB0 through SB5.
9. Install Filler Board 540-4040 in all empty CPU/Memory Board slots.
10. Install Filler Panel 330-2821 when servicing a CPU/Memory Board slot.
11. Mixing CPU speeds of 900MHz, 1050MHz and 1200MHz within a domain or system/platform is supported.
    750MHz CPUs cannot be included in mixed-speed configurations.
12. 1GB DIMMs 501-6109 and 540-5086 are only supported on 900MHz and faster system boards.
13. How To article 1005873.1 provides a "ftp-only" shortcut for updating the flashprom firmware.
