Looking for psrinfo-like command for Memory Modules

I've been looking for, but unable to find, a command/utility that functions kind of like psrinfo but for memory modules. I have Solaris 8 and Solaris 10 boxes. The output of prtdiag in Solaris 8 does not provide the status info for the CPUs and Memory Modules like it does in Solaris 10. Maybe Solaris 8 will show something that's faulty in the Fru Operational Status section but I don't know. Perhaps it's just been luck that the Solaris 8 boxes are not experiencing problems. But the Solaris 10 boxes have been having both CPU and Memory failures.


Code:
 
Host_Solaris8:> /usr/platform/`uname -i`/sbin/prtdiag | head -10
System Configuration: Sun Microsystems  sun4u Netra 240
System clock frequency: 160 MHZ
Memory size: 4GB
==================================== CPUs ====================================
                      E$          CPU     CPU       Temperature         Fan
       CPU  Freq      Size        Impl.   Mask     Die    Ambient   Speed   Unit
       ---  --------  ----------  ------  ----  --------  --------  -----   ----
     MB/P0  1280 MHz  1MB         US-IIIi  2.4       -        -
     MB/P1  1280 MHz  1MB         US-IIIi  2.4       -        -
 
 
Host_Solaris10:> prtdiag | head -10
System Configuration: Sun Microsystems  sun4u Netra 240
System clock frequency: 167 MHZ
Memory size: 4GB
==================================== CPUs ====================================
               E$          CPU                    CPU
CPU  Freq      Size        Implementation         Mask    Status      Location
---  --------  ----------  ---------------------  -----   ------      --------
0    1503 MHz  1MB         SUNW,UltraSPARC-IIIi    3.4    faulted     MB/P0
1    1503 MHz  1MB         SUNW,UltraSPARC-IIIi    3.4    on-line     MB/P1

When I first encountered a failed CPU, I then found psrinfo which gives consistent output whether on Solaris 8 or 10.


Code:
Host:> psrinfo
0       faulted   since 12/16/2008 12:45:49
1       on-line   since 12/04/2008 02:14:35

Since then, I've encounter failed memory modules on a Solaris 10 box. But, as with the CPUs, prtdiag in Solaris 8 does not have a status field for the memory.


Code:
 
Host_Solaris8:> /usr/platform/`uname -i`/sbin/prtdiag | tail -18 | head -6
Memory Module Groups:
--------------------------------------------------
ControllerID   GroupID  Labels
--------------------------------------------------
1              0        MB/P1/B0/D0,MB/P1/B0/D1
1              1        MB/P1/B1/D0,MB/P1/B1/D1
 
 
Host_Solaris10:> prtdiag | tail -8
Memory Module Groups:
--------------------------------------------------
ControllerID   GroupID  Labels         Status
--------------------------------------------------
0              0        MB/P0/B0/D0
0              0        MB/P0/B0/D1
1              0        MB/P1/B0/D0    failed
1              0        MB/P1/B0/D1    failed


If anyone knows of a consistent way, across Solaris8 and Solaris 10, to identify failed memory modules, I would love to hear it.

checkout sunfreeware and blastwave, I think cediag or memconf may provide the type of info you require
