Description
6790472
Virtual CD/DVD ROM Not Available Through Redirection in Oracle Solaris 10 OS
Issue:

When the Sun Fire X2270 M2 Server is running Oracle Solaris 10 OS and another system is connecting to a RKVM (remote keyboard, video, and mouse) session through the X2270 M2 SP, the virtual CD-ROM will not mount on the Oracle Solaris 10 OS system until volmgt is stopped.

Affected Hardware and Software:
  • Oracle Solaris 10 OS

Workaround:

To stop volmgt, type the command: /etc/init.d/volmgt stop

Network test case fails when running SunVTS v7.0PS7 or VTS v7.0PS8
Issue:

When running SunVTS v7.0PS7 or VTS v7.0PS8, the network test case fails the "Online Stress" and "Component Stress" tests. The root cause is that the FMA module in the Oracle Solaris 10 OS cannot fully support the CPU.

Affected Operating Systems and Hardware:
  • Oracle Solaris 10 10/09 OS

  • SunVTS

Workaround:

Attach the external loopback during the network test.

Resolution planned for the next version of the Oracle Solaris 10 OS.

Affected Operating Systems and Hardware:
  • SunVTS v7PS8

  • Niantic 10 Gb NIC

  • Oracle Solaris 10 10/09 OS driver: ixgbe

Workaround:

Use VTS external loopback test as a workaround.
