If you copy a large amount of text on OBP or Solaris while running SysFW 9.7.4, some the characters might be dropped. In the example below show at OBP, when the text select /pci@301/pci@1/scsi@0 is copied from line 2 to line 5, the scsi@0 text is unexpectedly dropped.
{0} ok {0} ok select /pci@301/pci@1/scsi@0 {0} ok show-sas-wwid SAS World Wide ID is 50800200 0218f9d0 {0} ok {0} ok unselect-dev {0} ok select /pci@303/pci@1/ <-- missing the "scsi@0" {0} ok show-sas-wwid show-sas-wwid ?
Another possible scenario to encounter the issue is to use script to enter a long OBP or Solaris command.
Workaround: If you encounter this issue, manually type the commands instead of copying a large amount of text.
Workaround: Another option is to disable console logging from Oracle ILOM, however choosing this option means you will not get a log of console output when the SP is degraded for later retrieval. To use this workaround, type this command at the Oracle ILOM prompt:
-> set /HOST/console logging=disabled
