Ultra[tm] 10 Workstation: Field Change Orders

The following list does not include related external storage FINs, unless they are specific to the system.

Implementation (Impl.):
M
= Mandatory (Fully Pro-Active)

C
= Controlled Pro-Active (per Sun Geo Plan)

U
= Upon Failure

FCO

Impl.
Components Affected Description
A0202-1
U
20 GB Seagate ST320414A (370-4327-01) Mirrored 20GB disk drives on Ultra 10 and Sun Blade 100 systems may be exposed to a drive compatibility issue when replacing a failed drive.
A0197-1
U
Ultra 10 (serial number xx101xxxxx to xx214xxxxx) Ultra 10 Systems within an affected serial number range may not pass EMI.
A0186-1
U
SunPCi II (375-0131-04) and SunPCi IIpro (375-3051-01) cards SunPCi II and SunPCi IIpro cards may not respond after rapid/successive power cycling.
A0182-1
C
18GB and 36GB IBM disk drives 18GB and 36GB IBM disk drives experiencing high failure rate in high humidity and high temperature environments.
A0173-1
U
CPU Module SR 400MHz (501-5741-01), CPU Module SR 360MHz (501-5148-06), CPU Module SR 440MHz (501-5149-08) Ultra 5 and Ultra 10 systems with Sapphire Red Modules have shown an increase in early life failures.
A0152-1
U
4-slot Riser Card (370-3197-02 or below)

PCI cards in Ultra 10 not accessible due to mechanical alignment and seating problems with the PCI Riser card. There are no error messages that indicate that the card is not seated correctly.

You may be able to determine if the card is not properly installed by looking at the connectors. The card should be parallel and even with the connector, the PCI card should not appear to be at an angle. The root cause has been attributed to the design of the support bracket.

A0146-1
U
FFB2+ Vertical/SB (501-4789-05 or below); FFB2+ Vertical/DBZ (501-4788-05 or below) Systems with FFB2+ installed may experience right shift of horizontal lines that contain the cursor and/or border line curves toward the mouse pointer when the mouse pointer is placed close to the left border of a cmdtool window. This can be easily seen when you set the FFB resolution to 960x680x112s with cmdtool's foreground color set to black and background to white.
A0143-1
M
System Board (375-0066-03) Reverse capacitor failure in Ultra 5 and Ultra 10 systems. Reverse bias voltage in excess of 20% of manufacturing specification will cause early life failure of the capacitor and, in addition, may cause damage to surrounding PCB or components and/or product functional failure.
A0139-1
U

PGX PCI-based 8-bit Frame Buffer (370-2256-02)

Systems with a PGX PCI-based 8-bit Frame Buffer may display a vertical black stripe when running the OpenWindows environment. This occurs only with frame buffers with an Fcode version 1.09 (determined by reading the label on the EPROM located at U4 on the frame buffer: 113-377-1-109).

A0137-1
U
300MHz UltraSPARC IIi Module (501-4379/501-5040) Ultra 10 will hang running SunVTS with either an AFB or FFB2 video card installed.
A0128-2
U
System Board (375-0009-05 or below)

Ultra5 and Ultra10 systems may experience fuzzy video, slow booting, and serial port hang when using the external clock source as transfer clock in SYNC mode (X.25).
