It's difficult to tell through a USB interface. What kind of drive is it inside?
It could be power problems, or could be an actual error.

Is there a way to install Solaris 10 x86 with an external DVD drive that connects through the USB port? I would think I would run GRUB off of a floppy disk and somehow use that to make it look to the USB port to boot from but I don't know how to do that. Can anyone help me out? (1 Reply)

usb_create_pm_components
usb_create_pm_components(9F) Kernel Functions for Drivers usb_create_pm_components(9F)
NAME
usb_create_pm_components - Create power management components for USB devices
SYNOPSIS
#include <sys/usb/usba.h>
int usb_create_pm_components(dev_info_t *dip, uint_t *pwrstates);
INTERFACE LEVEL
Solaris DDI specific (Solaris DDI)
PARAMETERS
dip Pointer to the device's dev_info structure.
pwrstates Address into which a mask which lists power states capable by device is returned. This is a bitmask containing zero or more of
the following values:
USB_DEV_PWRMASK_D0 Corresponds to USB_DEV_OS_PWR_3 or full power.
USB_DEV_PWRMASK_D1 Corresponds to USB_DEV_OS_PWR_2.
USB_DEV_PWRMASK_D2 Corresponds to USB_DEV_OS_PWR_1.
USB_DEV_PWRMASK_D3 Corresponds to USB_DEV_OS_PWR_0 or no power.
DESCRIPTION
The usb_create_pm_components() function creates pm component properties that assume the standard USB D0-D3 powerlevels (USB_DEV_PWR_D0 -
USB_DEV_PWR_D3). See the device's relevant USB descriptor to determine the device's power management capabilities and account for bus-pow-
ered devices. The usb_create_pm_components() function also updates the pm-components property in the device's dev_info structure.
Note that these USB power levels are inverse of OS power levels. For example, USB_DEV_OS_PWR_0 and USB_DEV_PWR_D3 are equivalent levels
corresponding to powered-down.
RETURN VALUES
USB_SUCCESS Power management facilities in device are recognized by system.
USB_FAILURE An error occurred.
CONTEXT
May be called from user or kernel context.
EXAMPLES
uint_t *pwrstates;
/* Hook into device's power management. Enable remote wakeup. */
if (usb_create_pm_components(dip, pwrstates) == USB_SUCCESS) {
usb_handle_remote_wakeup(dip,USB_REMOTE_WAKEUP_ENABLE);
}
