It probably doesn't look like a workstation to you, but that is a late 90's Sun workstation
Basically an Ultra 80 with a stand. It would have one built in NIC, and probably an addon quad NIC if it was ordered that way. I believe the addon ports would come up as qfe0, qfe1, etc.. you can try plumbing qfe0, qfe1, etc and see if one plumbs...
Now that I think about it, I'd say it would be better to first try the network connection the E150 is using in another box. Just take a laptop, hardcode it with the IP info from the E150, have the network guys reserve the IP to the laptop's MAC (if that's what they are using to reserve the IP) then remove the cable from the E150's hme0 right and plug it right into the laptop. That will tell you if the network connection works or not.
If it works, then you know is something in the server.

Dear Reader,
I have a very unique problem. Quite often my on board ethernet port( hme0 ) related message is appearing in /var/adm/messages.
The message is hme0: babble.. The port is up and alive.
What does this message mean.. Is the on board port is about to fail??
Thanks in advance, (2 Replies)

How do you configure more than one network on a single hme0 interface under SunOS? And why would you want to do this?
Thanx :)

lm-profiler
LM-PROFILER(8) System Manager's Manual LM-PROFILER(8)
NAME
/usr/sbin/lm-profiler - laptop mode profiler
SYNOPSIS
/usr/sbin/lm-profiler
DESCRIPTION
This manual page documents briefly the /usr/sbin/lm-profiler command. lm-profiler is a tool for profiling disk operations. It is a part of
laptop mode tools and is useful only in relation to rest of laptop mode tools. It helps you to detect programs and services that use up
system resources and that cause disk activity, and it allows you to disable them when laptop mode is active.
When you start lm-profiler, it will execute a "profiling run", which can take some time. Start lm-profiler when you are working on batter-
ies, preferably, because that will allow it to analyze the actual situation that it is supposed to optimize. During the profiling run, you
can use your system normally; however, any disk activity caused by your actions will end up in the profiler's results. When the profiling
run is finished, you will be presented with a list of programs that deserve your attention, either because they listen on a network (which
is not usually useful when you are working offline) or because they caused disk activity in a disk-spindown-unfriendly pattern. When lm-
profiler can guess an init script that belongs to a program, it presents you with the opportunity to disable the program when you are work-
ing on battery. It does this by placing a link to the init script in /etc/laptop-mode/batt-stop. Any programs that lm-profiler cannot find
an init script for is simply reported, so that you can stop the program manually if you want to.
WARNING ABOUT DISABLING PROGRAMS: It may not be safe to disable some programs. They may be needed for proper operation of your system. Dis-
able services only if you know what they do and why you don't need them.
FILES
/etc/lm-profiler.conf
lm-profiler retrieves its profiling rules from this file.
