This section provides tips (when available) for the
most common repair procedures for the Sun Ultra 10 Workstation. The
repair procedures are provided in the following manual:
| Component |
Tips |
| CD-ROM Drive |
- Booting from CD-ROM on Ultra 5/10 systems might not succeed unless
the system OBP is updated (FIN I0770-1).
|
| CPU Fan Assembly |
|
| CPU Module |
- The system board must have the minimum OBP version (3.19v4) installed
for the Ultra 5/10 333MHZ Sapphire Red CPU module; otherwise, the system
will be non-operational (FIN I0528-1).
|
| Disk Drive |
- When installing dual hard drives, the IDE cabling instructions in
some Ultra 10 manuals are incorrect. See the Sun Ultra 10 Product Note
(
 806-4928) for the correct instructions.
- The Hard Drive Mirroring section of the Sun Ultra 5/Ultra 10 CD-ROM and Hard Drive Installation Guide describes the requirements and constraints
of a hard drive mirroring solution that utilizes Solstice DiskSuite
software.
- Ultra 5/10 workstations may encounter uncorrectable data errors on
IDE disks during boot after using shutdown -y -i5 -g0 command (FIN I0779-1).
- Secondary disk drives won't be recognized with IBM 9 GB disk drive
as a primary and both configured with "master" (FIN I0568-1).

| Memory (DIMM) |
- Ultra 5 and Ultra 10 systems might not boot if Micron memory and OBP
3.25.2 (or earlier) are installed (FIN I0598-1).
|
| NVRAM/TOD |
- New NVRAM (525-1817) is incompatible with the Ultra 5/10 system board
(375-0079), so a new system board (375-0115) was created for the new
NVRAM (I0596-1).

| PCI Card |
-
SunPCi II and SunPCi IIpro cards may not respond
after rapid/successive power cycling (FCO A0186-1).

attached to Dual Ultra SCSI PCI cards (FIN I0386-1).
