A PCIe error can lead to an invalid fault diagnosis on a large M8000/M9000 domain.
|
Create a file /etc/fm/fmd/fmd.conf containing the following lines;
setprop client.buflim 40m
setprop client.memlim 40m

Using the cfgadm -c disconnect command on the following cards might hang the command:
- SG-XPCIE2FC-QF4, Sun StorageTek Enterprise Class 4-Gigabit Dual-Port Fiber Channel PCI-E HBA
- SG-XPCIE1FC-QF4, Sun StorageTek Enterprise Class 4-Gigabit Single-Port Fiber Channel PCI-E HBA
- SG-XPCI2FC-QF4, Sun StorageTek Enterprise Class 4-Gigabit Dual-Port Fiber Channel PCI-X HBA
- SG-XPCI1FC-QF4, Sun StorageTek Enterprise Class 4-Gigabit Single-Port Fiber Channel PCI-X HBA
|
Do not perform cfgadm -c disconnect operation on the affected cards.

Customers using more than six IOUA (Base I/O Card) cards in a single domain might experience panic during a period of high I/O stress.
|
Limit the maximum number of IOUAs in a single domain to 6.

If you create a Solaris Flash archive on a sun4u server other than an M4000/M5000/M8000/M9000 server, then install it on one of these servers, the console’s TTY flags will not be set correctly. This can cause the console to lose characters during stress.
|
ust after installing Solaris OS from a Solaris Flash archive, telnet into the M4000/M5000/M8000/M9000 server to reset the console’s TTY flags as follows:
# sttydefs -r console
# sttydefs -a console -i "9600 \hupcl opost onlcr crtscts" -f "9600"
This procedure is required only once.

Correctable error on the system PCIe bus controller generates an invalid fault.
|
Create a file /etc/fm/fmd/fmd.conf containing the following lines;
setprop client.buflim 40m
setprop client.memlim 40m

|
The incorrect motherboard might be identified by fmdump for cpu faults after reboot.
|
Check system status on XSCF.
|

|
The showhardconf(8) command on the XSCF cannot display PCI card information that is installed in the External I/O Expansion Unit, if the External I/O Expansion Unit is configured using PCI hot-plug.
|
There is no workaround. When each PCI card in the External I/O Expansion Unit is configured using PCI hot-plug, the PCI card information is displayed correctly.
|

|
showlogs(8) and showstatus(8) command might report wrong I/O component.
|
To avoid this problem, issue the following commands on the domain.
# cd /usr/platform/SUNW,SPARCEnterprise \ /lib/fm/topo/plugins
# mv ioboard.so ioboard.so.orig
# svcadm restart fmd
Contact a service engineer if the following messages are displayed:
SUNW-MSG-ID: SUNOS-8000-1L, TYPE:

There is a low probability that a system panic can occur during trap processing of a TLB miss for a user stack address. The problem can occur if the user stack is unmapped concurrently with the user process executing a flush windows trap (ta 3). The panic message will contain the following string:
bad kernel MMU trap at TL 2
|
There is no workaround.
|

|
If the system has detected Correctable MemoryErrors (CE) at power-on self-test (POST), the domains might incorrectly degrade 4 or 8 DIMMs.
|
Increase the memory patrol timeout values used via the following setting in /etc/system and reboot the system:
set mc-opl:mc_max_rewrite_loop = 20000
|

The system panics when running hot-plug (cfgadm) and DR operations (addboard and deleteboard) on the following cards:
- X4447A-Z, PCI-e Quad-port Gigabit Ethernet Adapter UTP
- X1027A-Z1, PCI-e Dual 10 Gigabit Ethernet Fiber XFP Low profile Adapter
|
There is no workaround.
|

|
The system panics when running hot-plug (cfgadm) to configure a previously unconfigured card. The message “WARNING: PCI Expansion ROM is not accessible” will be seen on the console shortly before the system panic. The following cards are affected by this defect:
- X4447A-Z, PCI-e Quad-port Gigabit Ethernet Adapter UTP
- X1027A-Z1, PCI-e Dual 10 Gigabit Ethernet Fiber XFP Low profile Adapter
|
Use cfgadm -c disconnect to completely remove the card. After waiting at least 10 seconds, the card might be configured back into the domain using the cfgadm -c configure command.
|

|
Messages of the form nxge: NOTICE: nxge_ipp_eccue_valid_check: rd_ptr = nnn wr_ptr = nnn will be observed on the console with the following cards:
- X4447A-Z, PCI-e Quad-port Gigabit Ethernet Adapter UTP
- X1027A-Z1, PCI-e Dual 10 Gigabit Ethernet Fiber XFP Low profile Adapter
|
These messages can be safely ignored.
|

|
Hot-plug operation with the following cards might fail if a card is disconnected and then immediately reconnected:
- SG-XPCIE2SCSIU320Z Sun StorageTek PCI-E Dual-Port Ultra320 SCSI HBA
- SGXPCI2SCSILM320-Z Sun StorageTek PCI Dual-Port Ultra320 SCSI HBA
|
After disconnecting a card, wait for a few seconds before re-connecting.

Performing a DR deleteboard operation on a board which includes Permanent Memory when using the following network cards results in broken connections:
- X4447A-Z, PCI-e Quad-port Gigabit Ethernet Adapter UTP
- X1027A-Z1, PCI-e Dual 10 Gigabit Ethernet Fiber XFP Low profile Adapter
|
Reconfigure the affected network interfaces after the completion of the DR operation. For basic network configuration procedures, refer to the ifconfig man page for more information.
|
6568417
|
After a successful CPU DR deleteboard operation, the system panics when the following network interfaces are in use:
- X4447A-Z, PCI-e Quad-port Gigabit Ethernet Adapter UTP
- X1027A-Z1, PCI-e Dual 10 Gigabit Ethernet Fiber XFP Low profile Adapter
|
Add the following line to /etc/system and reboot the system:
set ip:ip_soft_rings_cnt=0
|

|
Use of the following cards have been observed to cause data corruption in stress test under laboratory conditions:
- X4447A-Z, PCI-e Quad-port Gigabit Ethernet Adapter UTP
- X1027A-Z1, PCI-e Dual 10 Gigabit Ethernet Fiber XFP Low profile Adapter
|
Add the following line in /etc/system and reboot the system:
set nxge:nxge_rx_threshold_hi=0
|

|
The busstat(1M) command with -w option might cause M8000/M9000 server domains to reboot.
|
There is no workaround. Do not use busstat(1M) command with -w option on pcmu_p.

prtdiag does not show all IO devices of the following cards:
- SG-XPCIE2FC-EM4 Sun StorageTek Enterprise Class 4-Gigabit Dual-Port Fiber Channel PCI-E HBA
- SG-XPCIE1FC-EM4 Sun StorageTek Enterprise Class 4-Gigabit Single-Port Fiber Channel PCI-E HBA
|
Use prtdiag -v for full output.
|
6663570
|
DR operations involving the lowest numbered 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.
