Applies to:Sun Fire V20z Server - Version: Not Applicable and later [Release: N/A and later]Sun Fire V40z Server - Version: Not Applicable and later [Release: N/A and later] Sun Fire X4100 Server - Version: Not Applicable and later [Release: N/A and later] Sun Java Workstation W1100z - Version: Not Applicable and later [Release: N/A and later] Oracle Solaris on x86 (32-bit) Oracle Solaris on x86-64 (64-bit) All Platforms OpenSolaris Oracle Solaris Express SymptomsSolaris[TM] Operating System for x64 Platforms FMA (Fault Management Architecture) or PSH (Predictive Self Healing) messaging calls out faulted Memory Modules as dimm=0, dimm=1, etc. Not all Sun AMD systems physically label or silkscreen Memory Modules starting with dimm0. Please reference your specific system/platform, found in the resolution section, to show it's Memory Module layouts. ChangesDependant on platform and Solaris version.CauseFMA events are reported as Logical Devices, so in some platforms the reported dimm name does not match the label marked on the motherboard. SolutionIf your platform is not on the list as this was required only for older systems, later systems, the dimm label is more likely to match FMA labelling.
Sun Fire[TM] V40z Sun Fire[TM] X4100 and M2 Sun Fire[TM] X4200 and M2 Sun Fire[TM] X4500 Sun Fire[TM] X4600 and M2 Where Solaris x64 FMA Memory Module messages match 1:1, dimm=x maps to DIMMx: dimm=0 maps to the physical location; DIMM0 dimm=1 maps to the physical location; DIMM1 dimm=2 maps to the physical location; DIMM2 dimm=3 maps to the physical location; DIMM3 Sun Fire V20z/V40z label dimms starting with dimm0 closest to processor, moving outward, labeling reads dimm0, dimm1, dimm2, dimm3. Sun Fire X4100/X4200/X4500/X4600/x4600 plus M2 variants label dimms starting with dimm3 closest to processor, moving outward, labeling reads dimm3, dimm1, dimm2, dimm0. The following systems labeling/silkscreening of DIMM locations do NOT coincide with Solaris FMA Fault Messaging. Sun Fire[TM] X2100 Sun Java[TM] Workstation W1100z Sun Ultra[TM] 20 Workstation Where Solaris x64 FMA Memory Module messages does not match 1:1 then: dimm=0 maps to the physical location; DIMM1 dimm=1 maps to the physical location; DIMM2 dimm=2 maps to the physical location; DIMM3 dimm=3 maps to the physical location; DIMM4 Sun Fire X2100 label dimms starting with dimm1 closest to processor, moving outward labeling reads dimm1, dimm2, dimm3, dimm4. Sun Java Workstation W1100z label dimms starting with dimm4 closest to processor, moving outward labeling reads dimm4, dimm3, dimm2, dimm1. Sun Ultra 20 Workstation label dimms starting with dimm1 closest to processor, moving outward labeling reads dimm1, dimm2, dimm3, dimm4. The following system labeling/silkscreening of DIMM locations do NOT coincide with Solaris FMA Fault Messaging. Sun Java[TM] Workstation W2100z Where Solaris x64 FMA Memory Module messages does not match 1:1 then: CPU0 dimm=0 maps to the physical location; DIMM1 dimm=1 maps to the physical location; DIMM2 dimm=2 maps to the physical location; DIMM3 dimm=3 maps to the physical location; DIMM4 CPU1 dimm=0 maps to the physical location; DIMM5 dimm=1 maps to the physical location; DIMM6 dimm=2 maps to the physical location; DIMM7 dimm=3 maps to the physical location; DIMM8 Sun Java Workstation W2100z label dimms starting with dimm4 closest to processor 0, moving outward labeling reads dimm4, dimm3, dimm2, dimm1. Labeling for second processor starts with dimm8 closest to processor 1, moving outward labeling reads dimm8, dimm7, dimm6, dimm5. The following system labeling/silkscreening of Dimm locations do NOT coincide with Solaris FMA Fault Messaging. Sun Ultra[TM] 40 Workstation Where Solaris x64 FMA Memory Module messages does not match 1:1 then: CPU0 dimm=0 maps to the physical location; DIMM0 dimm=1 maps to the physical location; DIMM1 dimm=2 maps to the physical location; DIMM2 dimm=3 maps to the physical location; DIMM3 CPU1 dimm=0 maps to the physical location; DIMM4 dimm=1 maps to the physical location; DIMM5 dimm=2 maps to the physical location; DIMM6 dimm=3 maps to the physical location; DIMM7 Sun Ultra 40 Workstation label dimms starting with dimm0 closest to processor 0, moving outward, labeling reads dimm0, dimm1, dimm2, dimm3. Labeling for second processor starts with dimm4 closest to processor 1, moving outward labeling reads dimm4, dimm5, dimm6, dimm7.
