I have a Sun V210 that I use occasionally for build testing things big-endian. I switched it on the other day, at it aint comin' up. I was wondering if anyone on this fine forum knows if it can be brought back from the dead.
With the SCC card in, and conencted to the serial management line, if I switch on I get:
The fans are screaming away while these messages are looping.
If I remove the SCC card, there is more info (but not fans):
I'm able to invoke the escape menu, and I've tried resetting the ALOM from there. No cigar.
So looks like bad RAM or bad RAM controller? I tried removing all RAM and booting. No change.

I recently acquired a server for home use. Currently, I'm running a V210. I was wondering of a way to basically swap hard drives into the V440.
I would like to avoid reinstall on the V440 for many reasons.

I have bought from eBay a second hand Sun Fire V210 server and I'm really stumped at the lack of complete instructions on how to connect to it.
I don't have a Windows machine, I've only got Ubuntu and OS X computers. None of them have an old RS-232 port on them either.
In saying that, I have... (12 Replies)

Hey,
I have a V210 with a failed CPU fan.
The temperature is currently at 84C and I've been asked to wait a few weeks before replacing as its a production system and it cant be shut down yet.
