Solution Type Problem Resolution Sure Solution 1018155.1 : Sun Fire[TM] 12K/15K Servers : prtdiag reports "/IO31/P3" for SlotId and "-1" for PortId.
PreviouslyPublishedAs 229505 Symptoms Running the 'prtdiag' command on a Sun Fire[TM] 15K/12K domain reports the following spurious output : # /usr/platform/sun4u/sbin/prtdiag -v System Configuration: Sun[TM] Microsystems sun4u Sun Fire 15000 ========================= CPUs ========================= Port Run E$ CPU CPU Slot ID ID MHz MB Impl.

Resolution This is not due to a prtdiag bug nor a defective uniboard. And this is obviously not a MCPU board (reported as IO[0;17]/P[0/1]). Assuming that all the requirements for the System Controllers are OK (SMS 1.6 + patches), the first step is to check wether a USIV Uniboard has been recently added to the domain, using Dynamic Reconfiguration or not, or if any USIV board is part of this domain. Note : USIV boards are reported as "V3CPU" in the 'showboards' output on SF12K-15K Main System Controller. Ex : sms-svc> showboards -d e Retrieving board information. Please wait. ..... Location Pwr Type of Board Board Status Test Status Domain -------- --- ------------- ------------ ----------- ------ SB4 Off V3CPU Assigned Passed E SB5 Off CPU Assigned Passed E If a USIV Uniboard belongs to the domain then check the OS revision currently installed on this domain via the /etc/release file. Ex : # more /etc/release Solaris 8 2/02 s28s_u7wos_08a SPARC Copyright 2002 Sun Microsystems, Inc. All Rights Reserved. Assembled 18 December 2001 The minimum operating system for USIV is Solaris[TM] 8 2/04 or Solaris[TM] 9 4/04. Relief/Workaround No WorkAround. The appropriate OS must be installed (Fresh Installation or Upgrade) prior to the addition of the board to the domain. Additional Information Since the support of the USIV cpus has been introduced in Solaris 8 2/04 and Solaris 9 4/04, earlier releases are not able to deal with the cores of the USIV and then it reports the cores in a strange way. This situation can only occur after adding USIV board(s) to an existing domain. krtld: load_exec: fail to expand cpu/$CPU krtld: error during initial load/link phase panic - boot: exitto64 returned from client program NOTICE: f_client_exit: Program terminated! Depending on the revision for the 'prtdiag' patch installed, this may also lead to 'prtdiag' generating a "Segmentation Fault" while parsing the USIV cores.
