You can use the fmadm repair command to fix faults diagnosed by Oracle ILOM. (Faults diagnosed by Oracle ILOM, rather than the host, have message IDs starting with “SPT.”)
The only time you should use the fmadm repair command in the Oracle ILOM Fault Management shell for a host-diagnosed fault is when the fault is repaired and Oracle ILOM is unaware of the repair. For example, Oracle ILOM might be down when the fault is repaired. In that case, the host would no longer display the fault, yet the fault is still displayed in Oracle ILOM. Use the the fmadm repair command to clear the fault.

Response : The system will be powered off. The chassis-wide service required LED will be illuminated. Impact : The system is not usable until repaired. ILOM will not allow the system to be powered on until repaired. Action : The administrator should review the ILOM event log for additional information pertaining to this diagnosis.

Note - You can use either the NAC name (for instance, /SYS/MB) or the UUID (for instance, fa4a2f86-5156-4243-8e88-d6516db12970) of the fault with the fmadm repair command.
