Hello,

What hardware and solaris release are you running?

There is a known bug with the nxge driver as reported in the following link with certain hardware and a workaround you could try if running Solaris 10.

Bug ID: 6573600 nxge reports ereport.io.device.intern_uncorr errors

you will need to patch your system. upgrading to the latest kernel rev should do it.

better use a patch cluster or the "smpatch update" command to get all needed patches.

The link makes reference to batoka hardware which is a Sun T5440.

If you aren't running a T5440 then I would agree with the previous posts, install the latest patch sets and see if the problem reoccurs and take it from there.
