Firmware (7.x) in connection with the use of the Solaris Sun Update Connection
utility.

        firmware's open source components that are required to be made available under

NOTE 4: In order to use the Live Migration functionality with this revision of
        Sun System Firmware, you must be running the SUNWldm package from the
        Oracle VM Server for SPARC v2.1 (or greater).
 
NOTE 5: BugID 16839239 added in Sun System Firmware 7.4.7 for SPARC T2 platforms:
 
        This fix introduces a change in behavior regarding how time/date
        changes are handled. Previously any time/date change made other than
        by ILOM (by NTP or other method of setting the SP time that is not
        done through ILOM) would not affect the time/date of the host, even
        after a power cycle. But the change would be reflected in the
        time/date of the host after a full (including SP) power cycle, if that
        change was made since the last power-on of the host.
 
        With this change, all such time/date changes will now be reflected in
        the domain's time/date after a host power cycle regardless of how the
        change was made.
