The Solaris cfgadm(1M) command does not unconfigure a DVD drive from a domain on a Sun SPARC Enterprise M8000/M9000 server. |
Disable the Volume Management Daemon (vold) before unconfiguring a DVD drive with the cfgadm(1M) command. To disable vold, stop the daemon by issuing the command /etc/init.d/volmgt stop. After the device has been removed or inserted, restart the daemon by issuing the command /etc/init.d/volmgt start. |
|
The DAT72 internal tape drive might time out during tape operations. The device might also be identified by the system as a QIC drive. |
Add the following definition to /kernel/drv/st.conf: |
|
Memory translation warning messages might appear during boot if memory banks were disabled due to excessive errors. |
After the system is rebooted, the fmadm repair command can be used to prevent a recurrence of the problem on the next boot. |
|
Set the maximum size of the ZFS ARC lower. For detailed assistance, contact your authorized service representative. |
||
The error message network initialization failed appears repeatedly after a boot net installation. |
||
When XSCF is low on system resources, DR deleteboard or moveboard operations that relocate permanent memory might fail with one or more of these errors: SCF busy DR parallel copy timeout This applies only to Quad-XSB configured System Boards hosting multiple domains. |
||
In Solaris domains that include SPARC64 VII processors, workloads that make heavy use of the Solaris kernel might not scale as expected when you increase the thread count to a value greater than 256. |
For Solaris domains that include SPARC64 VII processors, limit domains to a maximum of 256 threads. |
|
On Sun SPARC Enterprise M8000/M9000 platforms, one of the columns in the IO Devices section of the output from prtdiag -v is "Type". This reports "PCIe", "PCIx", "PCI" or "UNKN" for each device. The algorithm used to compute this value is incorrect. It reports "PCI" for PCI-X leaf devices and "UNKN" for legacy PCI devices. |
||
When XSCF switchover happens after the SB has been added using the addboard command, the console is no longer available. |
||
The DR addboard command might cause a system hang if you are adding a Sun StorageTek Enterprise Class 4Gb Dual-Port Fibre Channel PCI-E HBA card (SG-XPCIE2FC-QF4) at the same time that an SAP process is attempting to access storage devices attached to this card. The chance of a system hang is increased if the following cards are used for heavy network traffic: |
||
Unsuccessful DR operation leaves memory partially configured. |
It might be possible to recover by adding the board back to the domain with an addboard -d command. |
|
The DR deleteboard(8) and moveboard(8) operations might hang if any of the following conditions exist: The domain contains system boards with different memory size. |
Avoid performing DR operations if any of the following conditions exist:
|
|
For Solaris domains that include SPARC 64 VII processors, a single domain of 256 threads or more might hang for an extended period of time under certain unusual situations. Upon recovery, the uptime command will show extremely high load averages. |
For Solaris domains that include SPARC 64 VII processors, do not exceed a domain size of 256 virtual processors in a single Solaris domain. This means a maximum of 32 CPUs in a single domain configuration (maximum configuration for an M8000 server). |
|
The Solaris command lockstat(1M) or the dtrace lockstat provider might cause a system panic. |
Do not use the Solaris lockstat(1M) command or the dtrace lockstat provider. |
|
Systems with large number of processors in a single domain environment might have suboptimal performance with certain workloads. |
Use processor sets to bind application processes or LWPs to groups of processors. Refer to the psrset(1M) man page for more information. |
|
fmd service on domain might fail to maintenance mode after DR operations. |
If fmd service fails, issue the following commands on the domain to recover: # svcadm clear fmd |
|
If a ubc.piowbeue-cpu error occurs on a domain, the Solaris Fault Management cpumem-diagnosis module might fail, causing an interruption in FMA service. If this happens, you will see output similar to the following sample in the console log: |
If fmd service fails, issue the following command on the domain to recover: # svcadm clear fmd Then restart cpumem-diagnosis: # fmadm restart cpumem-diagnosis |

SUNW-MSG-ID: FMD-8000-2K, TYPE: Defect, VER: 1, SEVERITY: Minor EVENT-TIME: Fri Apr 4 21:41:57 PDT 2008 PLATFORM: SUNW,SPARC-Enterprise, CSN: 2020642002, HOSTNAME: <hostname> SOURCE: fmd-self-diagnosis, REV: 1.0 EVENT-ID: 6b2e15d7-aa65-6bcc-bcb1-cb03a7dd77e3 DESC: A Solaris Fault Manager component has experienced an error that required the module to be disabled. Refer to http://sun.com/msg/FMD-8000-2K for more information. AUTO-RESPONSE: The module has been disabled. Events destined for the module will be saved for manual diagnosis. IMPACT: Automated diagnosis and response for subsequent events associated with this module will not occur. REC-ACTION: Use fmdump -v -u <EVENT-ID> to locate the module. Use fmadm reset <module> to reset the module. |
||
DR might cause the domain to hang if either of the following conditions exist: |
1. Set the following parameter in the system specification file (/etc/system): set drmach:drmach_disable_mcopy=1 |
|
DR operations involving the lowest number CPU might cause the domain to panic. |
Do not use DR to remove the system board that hosts the CPU with the lowest CPU ID. Use the Solaris prtdiag command to identify the CPU with the lowest CPU ID. |
|
Certain service processor-detected faults are not reported by the XSCF command fmadm faulty, nor will such faults be passed along as an ereport to the domain. |
||
After DIMMs are replaced, the corresponding DIMM faults are not cleared on the domain. |
Use the command fmadm repair fmri|uuid to record the repair. Then you can use the command fmadm rotate to clear out any leftover events. |
|
If your domain is running one of the following versions of Solaris OS, the system might panic/trap during normal operation: |
Set the following parameter in the system specification file (/etc/system): set heaplp_use_stlb=0 |
