No value in Ethernet address and Host ID at Ok prompt
Hi All,

In Ultra 10 at time system is not displaying value for Ethernet address and Host ID.

Also, when i am trying to change the value of environment variables i am getting below message and value is not changing

Quote:
"Unimplemented action # 1 on object ( fffde280), whose maximum action is -1 "

Thanks

Doesn't the Ultra 10s have a battery for the prom? (It been a long time)

If not do you have another prom to swap out?

Maybe the nvram is corrupted..? what had happened to the system? any history behind this? Why do you want to change it all of a sudden ?

Thanks all,

Yes, I am also thinking that it could be an issue with battery, but not sure if I have any option to change it. I bought this system in resell almost year back.

Can I get the prom in market for ultra 10 or nay option to change the batter which can rectify this issue ?

All,

A "reset-all" on the OK - prompt solved it. I also ran a set-defaults afterwards --> otherwise replace the battery
