XVR-100 in Blade 1000

Hello everyone !!!

I just got a Sun XVR-100 video card.

Will it work in the Blade 1000? I know it works fine in Blade 1500, 2000 and 280R which is rackmountable version of the Blade 1000.

Does anyone have this setup?

Are there any special setup instructions?

Also, i have a Sun internal SCSI DDS-3 tape backup drive coming in. What software should i use? I'm running Solaris 10.

Will Solaris be able to perform backups with that drive without any special software? What about drivers?

Thanks in advance,

Sal.

The card is not supported on the Blade 1000. Even though the 280R shares components with the B1k the system firmware is different. A PGX32/64 should be considered instead.
