Sun Management Center 3.6 Release Notes

Workgroup Server Bugs

Red Alarms Occur on Sun Fire 280R Servers Due to Temporary Indeterminate Status of DIMMs and Fans (6326476)

On Sun Fire 280R Servers with Solaris 10 software installed, red alarms occur for approximately five minutes after the agent starts. The red alarms are triggered from the DIMMs and Fans tables of the Config Reader because the status of the DIMMs and fans is temporarily indeterminate.

When the red alarms are on, the top, front, and rear views of the Physical View do not display any components and display the chassis only.

Workaround: None.

Sun Fire V490 and Sun Fire V890 Servers Not Displayed as Supported in the Config Reader Module (6287829)

The Module description for the Config Reader Module for workgroup servers does not include the Sun Fire V490 and the Sun Fire V890 servers as supported platforms apart from Sun Fire 280R, Sun Fire V480, and Sun Fire V880 servers already present.

You can display this description by clicking mouse button 3 on Config Reader and selecting Attribute Editor in the Module Browser window.

Workaround: None.

Selecting the Alarm Tab on Sun Fire V880 and Sun Fire V480 Servers Causes Alarm Alert Messages (6317433)

On Sun Fire V880 and Sun Fire V480 servers with two objects, an Alarm Alert message similar to the following appears when you select the Alarm Tab on the discovered object.

The following alert message might be displayed:

Unable to get event management information from agent. Agent was busy or down. Will default to local event manager.

Most likely, this alert message is incorrect and the agent is working properly.

Clicking OK causes the alarm tab table to default to local event management. If the detail window of the discovered object is closed and opened again, clicking the alarm tab causes the same alert message to be displayed.

Workaround: None.

Incorrect Processor Type in Hardware Rules Table of Sun Fire V890 Servers on Solaris 10 (6318026)

Sun Fire V890 servers are shipped with UltraSparc-IV processors. However, the Property column of the Hardware Rules table incorrectly displays “Correctable Memory Error, Ultra Sparc III” and “I/O Correctable Error, Ultra Sparc III” as the processor type.

Workaround: None.
