Solaris install problem
Hi does someone have a solaris 10 install problem on a sunfire v880?
it keeps hanging

We know nothing about your V880 - I remember its old.. when we first got an early version we had trouble with the internal clock and it needed patch for disks...I dont se how we can help not knowing a minimum of its configuration, and keep in mind if patches are needed we cannot help you in getting them, at the most, give you their refs and you are to get them at oracle with a valid support...

Hi,

You'll need to be a bit more specific;
  • Does it get past the POST?
  • Is it from Media or a Jump Start Server
  • Are there any messages?
  • What command are you using to boot the server?
  • Is the {ok} prompt visible?

If you want some help with this you'll have to give us some information.

Regards

Hi,

I think that to make any progress here you'll have to access the ALOM (Advanced Lights Out Manager) and login. Then you'll have to start with the following, from the prompt;

Code:
sc> reset -x

Or you can run;

Code:
sc> poweroff

This should take you to the OBP "{ok}" prompt, here you should be able to get some output by running;

Code:
{ok} show-post-results

Post the output - but it does look like a processor card fault.

Regards
