Sun Fire[tm] 15K Server: Repair Procedures

This section provides the most common repair procedures for the Sun Fire 15K. The following links are located in the Sun Fire 15K System Service Manual (806-3512).

Clustered Hardware Note: When repairing a clustered system, you should replace server components by first switching over the data services to the functioning server, halting the host to be serviced, powering down the host, and then performing the hardware procedure to replace the component. Following the procedure, the logical hosts should be switched back to the default masters.

The following table provides the page numbers for each procedure.

System Control (SC) Board	2.2.2	Sun Fire 15K System Controller should be configured with at least 2 Gbytes swap space (FIN I0748-1). All Sun Fire 15K systems running SMS 1.1 or SMS 1.2 do not have the osdTimeDeltas file in the file propagation list. If a failover occurs, this could result in a rollback of a domain's Time Of Day. Such a shift in time has unforseen effects on applications (FIN I0785-1).
System Control (SC) Board cPCI Slot Installation	2.2.4
System Control (SC) CPU Board	2.2.3	When inserting a CP1500 CPU board firmware must be updated (FIN I0761-1) Mac address of SC can change when installing new CP1500 board, which will cause the system not to boot (FIN I0771-1)
System Control (SC) Peripheral Board	2.2.5
System Expander Board	2.3.1	Due to a bug in the AXQ ASIC which resides on the System Expander Board of the F15K, a Solaris panic can occur if too many outstanding noncacheable Programmed I/O transactions are awaiting service (FIN I0763-1).
