hcclnoodles · #1 (**permalink**) 10-05-2006

Hi there

I have a v210 with solaris 8 that was working fine yesterday, today however when it was rebooted i get the following (normal message)

Code:

and finally ....

Code:

syncing file systems... done
skipping system dump - no dump device configured
rebooting...

and the whole merry dance starts again ...

If I try to interupt the boot process and issue a boot command with switches, it says

Code:

FATAL: system not bootable, boot command disabled

Does anybody have any idea where i should start with this one ???

A call to SUN support would be the best choice. I would guess you have a cpu failure. You could, if you have more than one cpu, try removing one cpu at a time until you find the one that is bad (probably cpu0)

Try a reset-all from the ok prompt first - could be that the hardware has got it's kn*ckers in a twist

ok> setenv auto-boot? false (optional step)
ok> reset-all
ok> setenv-auto-boot? true (optional step)
ok> boot

* All the auto-boot? commands are personal choice - I hate to have a server that's acting up auto-booting, but it's personal choice so feel free to ignore

definitly looks like a hardware issue. Some messages can be cryptic and sun support is usually pretty good at deciphering. I bet they would have no problem in finding the source of the issue if you can get them those console logs.
