TABLE 6 Solaris OS Issues and Workarounds Fixed in Solaris 10 5/08 (1 of 4)
CR ID Description Workaround
5076574 A PCIe error can lead to an invalid fault
diagnosis on a large M9000/M8000 domain.
Create a file /etc/fm/fmd/fmd.conf
containing the following lines;
setprop client.buflim 40m
setprop client.memlim 40m
6348554 Using the cfgadm -c disconnect
command on the following cards might hang
the command:
• SG-XPCIE2FC-QF4 Sun StorageTek
Enterprise Class 4Gb Dual-Port Fibre
Channel PCI-E HBA
• SG-XPCIE1FC-QF4 Sun StorageTek
Enterprise Class 4Gb Single-Port Fibre
Channel PCI-E HBA
• SG-XPCI2FC-QF4 Sun StorageTek
Enterprise Class 4Gb Dual-Port Fibre
Channel PCI-X HBA
• SG-XPCI1FC-QF4 Sun StorageTek
Enterprise Class 4Gb Single-Port Fibre
Channel PCI-X HBA
Do not perform cfgadm -c disconnect
operation on the affected cards.
6472153 If you create a Solaris Flash archive on a non-
Sun SPARC Enterprise M8000/M9000 sun4u
server and install it on a Sun SPARC Enterprise
M8000/M9000 sun4u server, the console’s TTY
flags will not be set correctly. This can cause
the console to lose characters during stress.
Just after installing Solaris OS from a Solaris
Flash archive, telnet into the Sun SPARC
Enterprise M8000/M9000 server to reset the
console’s TTY flags as follows:
# sttydefs -r console
# sttydefs -a console -i "9600 hupcl
opost onlcr crtscts" -f "9600"
This procedure is required only once.
6522433 The incorrect motherboard might be identified
by fmdump for cpu faults after reboot.
None at this time.
6527811 The showhardconf(8) command on the XSCF
cannot display PCI card information that is
installed in the External I/O Expansion Unit, if
the External I/O Expansion Unit is configured
using PCI hot-plug.
There is no workaround. When each PCI card in
the External I/O Expansion Unit is configured
using PCI hot-plug, the PCI card information is
displayed correctly.
