solaris hangs after booting

Hi,

We've got a Sun Fire V245 that's failing to boot from either boot disk (mirrored using SVM). It simply hangs after loading a few modules:

Code:

Sun Fire V245, No Keyboard
Copyright 2006 Sun Microsystems, Inc.  All rights reserved.
OpenBoot 4.22.22, 1024 MB memory installed, Serial #74521658.
Ethernet address 0:14:4f:71:1c:3a, Host ID: 84711c3a.



Rebooting with command: boot -avr /pci@1e,600000/pci@0/pci@a/pci@0/pci@8/scsi@1/sd@2,0
Boot device: /pci@1e,600000/pci@0/pci@a/pci@0/pci@8/scsi@1/disk@0,0:a  File and args: -avr /pci@1e,600000/pci@0/pci@a/pci@0/pci@8/scsi@1/sd@2,0
krtld: Unused kernel arguments: `/pci@1e,600000/pci@0/pci@a/pci@0/pci@8/scsi@1/sd@2,0'.
module /platform/sun4u/kernel/sparcv9/unix: text at [0x1000000, 0x10a096d] data at 0x1800000
module /platform/sun4u/kernel/sparcv9/genunix: text at [0x10a0970, 0x12615bf] data at 0x1867cc0
module /platform/SUNW,Sun-Fire-V245/kernel/misc/sparcv9/platmod: text at [0x12615c0, 0x1261e4f] data at 0x18be088
module /platform/sun4u/kernel/cpu/sparcv9/SUNW,UltraSPARC-IIIi: text at [0x1261e80, 0x1272f0f] data at 0x18be900

Once it get's to this stage, we get nothing. This occurs when trying to boot fom either of the mirrored disks. We're getting someone onsite with Solaris media, so we can boot from CD into single user. In the meantime, can anyone shed any light as to what could be the issue here?

After these modules are loaded, am I correct in assuming the kernel tries to mount the root filesystem? I guess if we're having this issue on both boot disks, the root filesystem has become unusable/corrupted in SVM?

Thanks in advance.

Solaris 9 server hangs, when rebooting

Hi, We have a SunFire V880, hooked up with 2 T3 arrays. When ever we issue a reboot command on the system, it hangs at the same place right where it says syncing file systems done. To bring it back we shutdown power and it comes clean. By the way init 6 command works fine. Has anyone come...

NAME

       tavor - InfiniHost MT23108/MT25208 InfiniBand (IB) Driver

SYNOPSIS

       PCI   pci15b3,5a44@pci-slot, pci15b3,5a45@pci-slot

       PCI-E pci15b3,6278@pci-e-slot, pci15b3,6279@pci-e-slot

       The  tavor  driver is an IB Architecture-compliant implementation of an HCA, which operates on the Mellanox MT23108 InfiniBand ASSP and the
       Mellanox MT25208 InfiniBand ASSP. These ASSP's support the  link and physical layers of the InfiniBand specification, while  the  ASSP  and
       the driver support the transport layer.

       The  tavor  driver  interfaces with the InfiniBand Transport Framework (IBTF) and provides an implementation of the Channel Interfaces that
       are defined by that framework. It also enables management applications and agents to access the IB fabric.

       In addition to being logged, the following messages may appear on the system console.

       tavor : driver attached for maintenance mode only.

	   There was a failure in the boot process of the tavor ASSP and the only function that can be performed is to re-flash  firmware  on  the
	   ASSP.

       driver failed to attach.

	   The ASSP could not boot into either operational (HCA) mode or into maintenance mode. The device in inoperable.

       Unexpected port number in port state change event.

	   A port state change event occurred, but the port number in the message does not exist on this HCA. This message also indicates the port
	   number that was in the port state change.

       Tavor driver successfully detached.

	   The driver has been removed from the system, and the HCA is no longer available for transfer operations.

       tavor"n": port "m" up.

	   A port up asynchronous event has occured. "n" represents the instance of the Tavor device number, and "m" represents the port number on
	   the Tavor device.

       tavor"n": port "m" down.

	   A port down aynchronous event has occurred.

       Tavor: <command name> command failed.

	   A internal firmware command failed to execute.
