Workaround

 

 

 

6466617 Performing a hot plug operation with the PCI‐ E slot too quickly interrupts a PCI leaf reset and fails, creating a cfgadm(1M): Component system is busy error.

6472153 If you create a Solaris Flash archive on a non‐ SPARC Enterprise M4000/M5000 sun4u server and install it on a SPARC Enterprise M4000/M5000 sun4u server, the consoleʹs TTY flags will not be set correctly. This can cause the console to lose characters during stress.

6481002 Installing the Solaris from the network using certain PCI‐Express cards may cause a panic.

Pause a few seconds between the issue of each cfgadm -c command.

Just after installing Solaris OS, telnet into the SPARC Enterprise M4000/M5000 server to reset the consoleʹs TTY flags as follows:

#sttydefs -r console

#sttydefs -a console -i "9600 hupcl opost onlcr crtscts" -f "9600"

This procedure is required only once.

If you are using a Sun PCI‐E Dual Gigabit Ethernet Adapter MMF card or a Sun PCI‐E Dual Gigabit Ethernet Adapter UTP card, do not install the Solaris using either of these cards. Instead, use other network devices, such as the onboard Gigabit Ethernet or another network device.

corruption could occur due to a race condition.
