Comment on How To replace M4000/M5000 XSCF board by Red Steve
How did you clear the error log and quiesce the amber light on the front panel?
This has been our experience.
We’ve also had to change 2 x m3000 mainboards.
In both cases our fault was indicated by a lit amber light on the front panel.
When we investigated with “showstatus”, it reported the CPU cache was reporting an error and performance was degraded. The CPU cache is on the MBU which requires a mainboard swap.
Fortunately the first faulty M3000 was still under warranty as a new mainboard is 8 or 9 grand (GBP). Oracle came out to site and after swapping the mainboard, The amber light was still lit. To clear this they had to request a passcode based on XCP version, date and serial number from Oracle Support. This took 24 hours to arrive and they came back next morning when they could use the passcode to get to an elevated “service>” prompt. They could then use the command “clearfault /MBU_A” .
Oh, before this when we powered on after the mainboard swap we had an XCP version mismatch. The panel EEPROM on 1093 and FMEM on 1091. Oracle were unsure which version to get a passcode for and requested 1093 first. Unfortunately this passcode didn’t work. They then requested the 1091 code which worked The passcodes they obtain expire in 48 hours.
The second server that faulted was out of warranty and our hardware support had no access to the passcode. The mainboard was replaced and the error condition was still reported and needed to be cleared.
The first option tried “restoredefaults -c xscfu” didn’t clear the error log and switch off the amber light. So we had to do a full factory reset using the “restoredefaults -c factory” command. This zeros the error logs which clears the fault condition.
PLEASE BE AWARE that a full factory reset requires
1. Physical presence at the server
2. The SERIAL CONSOLE and CONNECTION that was used for the initial XSCF configuration because after this restore/reset you’re right back to the username “default” with no ethernet networking configured.
3. THE KEY for the front panel. When you type username “default” and press return you have to wait 5 secs and turn the key to the service position, then go back to the console press return and then back to the front panel and turn the key back to the locked position.
We had done a dumpconfig but we were advised it was less riskier to redo the config. manually from our documentation rather than “restoreconfig”.
I assume everyone’s familiar with XSCF commands. This is the order we restored our config..
XSCF> adduser (fe and we also created our own username)
XSCF> password (for both users)
XSCF> setprivileges (fieldeng for fe, platadm for our username)
XSCF> setdscp
XSCF> settimezone
XSCF> setnetwork
XSCF> setroute
XSCF> sethostname
XSCF> sethostname -d
XSCF> setssh -c enable (enabled ssh)
Hope this helps somebody.
Cheers

How do you do this WITHOUT having scadm available? And an ALOM firmware version that won’t erase the passwords?

Comment on How to bypass and reset the ALOM password for Sun V-Series and Netra Series by S.Aziz
download and install the RSC, see the post update for detail. The ALOM password should be able to erase by this command. Hv tested even on old machine like Netra V210 with Solaris 8.

Comment on Download Cisco Unified Communications Manager 6.0.1 – Install DVD by MO
Geo,
I would appriciate it if you could explain the steps that you took for resolving this. After installing the Virtual Machine, how do you then add the OS? Also I am so confused with regards to the IP addresses that we should use, ie the default gateway is which of the adapters, the windows host adapter ip address or the vmware adapter?

Comment on Netbackup Image cleanup JOB is no longer running by Clifford
The registry cleaning software by PC Tools is legitimate and the vendor is one of
the trustworthy security software vendors. The ways to establish such trust and
reputation are by. To penetrate a system, it takes
hours, days and even months and years.

Comment on Solaris 10 Commad Line Guide – Networking Configuration by S.Aziz
Solaris 9/10 shipped with almost all NIC card drivers, you just need to ‘plumb’ your 2nd NIC card port and configure the ip address. If let say you have 1 NIC card with 4 ports and your first nic card detected as “e1000g0″, then your 2nd port driver would be “e1000g1″. type “ifconfig e1000g1 plumb” and configure the ip address.

Comment on Enabling or Disabling MPXIO Multipathing per Port by Caushiph
Hi Saif,
Suggest me about few questions
1. Should we use mpxio for any San boot or can we live without using mpxio
2. in case we have SAS or FC disk locally attached with Sun server, should we use mpxio on boot disk in that case or can we live without enabling mpxio on boot disk in that case. I think, locally attached disks are per controller but still if we enable mpxio it will put disk mpxio control, please correct me if i am wrong
Thanks

In 2002, QNET expanded into the product line of vacation programs and holiday packages.
Wow. due to the fact these items are very famous for the fact that they are able to beautifully union the trendy style inspired
by American watches from the thirties just like
Elgin and the old fashioned Swiss timekeeper production.
