Netra CT 810 HD SPARCengine CP2000 model 160 (UltraSPARC-IIi 648MHz), Keyboard Present OpenBoot 4.0, 1024 MB memory installed, Serial #336594366. Ethernet address 0:14:4f:10:5:be, Host ID: 941005be. - 2 mezzanine cards installed into the satellite: Peritek Argus AD6-00729-A501 (graphics PMC card) and ACT Technico 8043-BFP (audio PMC card) CauseProblems encountered during the activity Could not support 0xa7fffff8, bar size in PCI memory mapping
Could not support 0xa8000000, bar size in PCI memory mapping Could not support 0xa8000000, bar size in PCI memory mapping Could not support 0xfd500000, bar size in PCI memory mapping We tried all the possible actions to restore the functionality of the board, without success:
N.B.: examples of escape sequence are ~b, ~.,~g, ~t, ~n obviously tried with the goal to not only reset the OBP values, but also to test the board response and the MCNet-IPMI mode switching; all the escape sequences correctly worked on the other satellites, not on this one
Unfortunately, the board has been corrupted. SolutionCorrect procedure followed in this case to avoid useless corruption and replacement
N.B.: we also tried to replace the satellite with a new p/n 375-3129, because we supposed to have a sort of "“backward compatibility” at fw level with the newest p/n 375-3394, but this was an erroneous hipothesys that, instead, delayed the resolution and it did run into another issue, the DOA of the new 375-3129 tested
It is also not logical to think we would ship a blade with a new flash device installed with firmware that does not support that device. No one should ever downgrade a firmware version installed in the factory unless they have confirmation it is safe to do so.
The customer had to re-qualify his environment/applications at 1.0.21, because 1.0.20 is not compatible with the new flash PROM; it's the responsibility of the customer to view the changes made via PCN and/or release notes (see attachments) then certify the changes themselves

Note that the above changes are lost if you subsequently reset the system so please keep this in mind when we gather the data for this experiment. ok add-dropin net:,/oci-peritek.di

Programming FLASH... Done. Verifying FLASH PROM Done. Notes 1> A graphics device has never been officially supported as one of the mux devices so although this may have worked in the past. It has never been officially supported. In other words, you can run a graphics device but there is no support for having that graphics device part of the console mux. Note that does not mean it does not or will not work it just means that the QA group does not test that functionality. 2> Customer OBP settings example ok printenv Variable Name Value Default Value dhcp-clientid multiplexer-output-devices ttya ssp-serial ttya ttye multiplexer-input-devices ttya ssp-serial ttya ttye front-phy? false true shutdown-temperature 80 80 critical-temperature 75 75 warning-temperature 70 70 env-monitor disabled disabled ntp-server-addr 255.255.255.255 255.255.255.255 ntp-enable? false false auto-config-save? true true diag-passes 1 1 diag-continue? 0 0 diag-targets 0 0 diag-verbosity 0 0 post-on-sir? false false keyboard-click? false false keymap scsi-initiator-id 7 7 #power-cycles 25 No default system-board-serial# 005848 No default system-board-date 11/22/05 No default ttyb-rts-dtr-off false false ttyb-ignore-cd true true ttya-rts-dtr-off false false ttya-ignore-cd true true ttyb-mode 9600,8,n,1,- 9600,8,n,1,- ttya-mode 9600,8,n,1,- 9600,8,n,1,- cpci-probe-list 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,a,b, ... 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,a,b, ... pcia-probe-list 1 1 pcib-probe-list 1,2,3,4 1,2,3,4 probe-delay 30 30 mfg-mode off off diag-level max max watchdog-timeout 65535 65535 watchdog-enable? false false fcode-debug? false false output-device output-mux ttya input-device input-mux ttya load-base 16384 16384 auto-boot-retry? true false boot-command boot boot auto-boot? false true watchdog-reboot? false false network-boot-arguments diag-file diag-device net net boot-file boot-device net:dhcp,,,,,5 net2:dhcp ... disk net net-timeout 0 0 ansi-terminal? true true screen-#columns 80 80 screen-#rows 34 34 local-mac-address? true false silent-mode? false false use-nvramrc? false false nvramrc security-mode none No default security-password No default security-#badlogins 0 No default oem-logo No default oem-logo? false false oem-banner No default oem-banner? false false hardware-revision No default last-hardware-update No default diag-switch? false false References<NOTE:1004140.1> - Netra[TM] CT410/CT810 Server: How to redirect console of CPU board to Alarm CardHTTPS://SUPPORT.US.ORACLE.COM/HANDBOOK_INTERNAL/DEVICES/SYSTEM_BOARD/SYSBD_CP2160.HTML @<NOTE:1348151.1> - Netra CT 410/810 Product Page (Makaha) HTTPS://STBEEHIVE.ORACLE.COM/CONTENT/DAV/ST/VSP_DOCS_TOIS_PDFS/DOCUMENTS/VSP_TOIS/CT410/MA2160.SXIL Attachments This solution has no attachment |
