CPU modules |
Tuning the ecache_scan_rate
parameter of the Solaris cache scrubber provides improved Ecache parity
error protection on non-mirrored SRAM UltraSPARC II-based systems. |

R
|
CPU modules |
OS mapping versus physical
location of CPU modules for E420R, E450, U80 and Netra t1400/t1405 systems
may lead to incorrect module replacement. |

Rackmounting |
Rack-mounted Enterprise 220R,
420R and Sun Fire 280R systems may bind with adjacent systems if improperly
installed. |

Toshiba DVD-ROM SD-M1401 (390-0025-01)
|
Toshiba DVD-ROM drives (390-0025-01) cannot
boot future Solaris releases from DVD media without a firmware patch. |

Torque Tool |
To torque correctly on a specific Sun
Products, refer to the Torque tool matrix for correct Torque Bit Type/Size
and Torque Setting. |

Quad Fast Ethernet card (X1034), GBE/P
Ethernet card (X1141) |
Ultra 80 system board based systems may panic at boot time with certain
PCI Bus configurations.

System Board (501-5168-17), DC/DC Converter
(300-1407-06) |
Improper insertion of the DC-DC convertor
module on certain systems may cause burned pins on the mother board connector. |

C
|
CPU Module |
Solaris kernel patches provide improved
handling and reduction of CPU, Ecache, and main memory errors in UltraSPARC
systems. All customers on Solaris 2.5.1, 2.6, 7 and 8 are encouraged to
consider upgrading to these kernel patches as they become available. |

|
Memory Riser card (501-5218-10) |
System initialization failures are sometimes being diagnosed incorrectly
on Ultra 80, E420R, Netra T 1400 and Netra T 1405 based systems. As a
result, wrong FRU's are being replaced and good parts are being returned
to repair depots.
In some cases, where the initialization failure is caused by an improperly
installed Memory Riser Card, the parts replaced have been the DIMM or
the CPU board.

SRC/P Intelligent SCSI RAID Controller
( 375-0078-01, 375-0078-02) |
Numerous error conditions may result from
using the StorEdge SRC/P RAID controller with Firmware Version SM02. |
| I0570-3 |
R
|
CPU Modules |
The current diagnostic procedure to identify
the faulty CPU module from CPU Ecache parity errors is flawed, and it could
easily lead to the wrong CPU being replaced. Make sure to follow the appropriate
instructions and guidelines to CORRECTLY identify Ecache panic fault diagnosis
on multi-cpu systems. |

Solaris 2.6 5/98 |
Enterprise 420R and Ultra 80 systems may
be unable to reboot after performing a network installation (interactive
or jumpstart) from a modified Solaris 2.6 5/98 net install image that was
patched via the modify_install_server script found on the 'Operating Environment
Installation CD September 1999' CD (part number 704-6914-10). |
| I0537-2 |
R
|
Memory Riser card (501-5218-10) |
When replacing the memory riser assembly
in one of the above mentioned Ultra 80 based systems, caution should be
used when tightening the memory riser assembly thumbscrews that hold the
card in position. Failure to properly assemble these parts to the correct
torque setting, can cause intermittent memory related system problems. Too
little torque can cause no memory to be found in the system upon powerup
and too much torque can cause damage to the motherboard Memory Riser card
connectors. |
