SPARC T8-4 Server Service Manual

Clear a Fault Manually

When PSH detects faults, the faults are logged and displayed on the console. In most cases, after the fault is repaired, the corrected state is detected by the server, and the fault condition is repaired automatically. However, this repair should be verified. In cases where the fault condition is not automatically cleared, you must clear the fault manually.

1. After replacing a faulty FRU, power on the server.

   See Returning the Server to Operation.

2. At the host prompt, determine whether the replaced FRU still shows a faulty state.

   See Check for Faults.

   • If no fault is reported, you do not need to do anything else. Do not perform the subsequent steps.
   • If a fault is reported, continue to Step 3.
3. Clear the fault from all persistent fault records.

   In some cases, even though the fault is cleared, some persistent fault information remains and results in erroneous fault messages at boot time. To ensure that these messages are not displayed, type this PSH command:

   faultmgmtsp> fmadm acquit UUID 

4. Verify the fault is cleared.

   Run the show disabled command to see if any components are still listed as faulty. If there are disabled components, repair the faults manually and continue to the next step to reset the server.

   faultmgmtsp> show disabled

5. If required, reset the server.

   faultmgmtsp> exit
   -> reset /System
   Are you sure you want to reset /System? y
   Resetting /System ...
