Operating Systems Solaris Sun Fire v440 hardware problem (can't get ok>) Post 302322185 by lowbyte on Wednesday 3rd of June 2009 04:52:24 AM

Hi

the message:
0>POST: Return to OBP.

SC Alert: Host System has Reset

Could not read diag-switch? from NVRAM!

shows you error. The ALOM is okay, the POST has run, then the
server will return to OBP, therefor he reads the contents of the NVRAM.
But your NVRAM is flashed, you can't boot or install Solaris, cause
the NVRAM is the BIOS of the V440, where all pathes and infos for
your hardware is been saved.
The only way is to install a new NVRAM, you need a support contract
and a service call, or a new motherboard.
