6485555 On the SPARC Enterprise M8000/M9000 servers, On-board Gigabit Ethernet NVRAM corruption could occur due to a race condition.

The window of opportunity for this race condition is very small.

6496337 The "cpumem-diagnosis" module may fail to load after uncorrectable error(UE) panic.

Systems will function correctly but events normally automatically diagnosed by FMA using this module will require manual diagnosis.

Example:

SUNW-MSG-ID: FMD-8000-2K, TYPE:

Defect, VER: 1, SEVERITY: Minor

EVENT-TIME: Thu Feb 15 15:46:57 JST 2007

PLATFORM: SUNW,SPARC-Enterprise,

CSN: BE80601007, HOSTNAME: col2-ff- em7-d0

6498283 Using the DR deleteboard(8) command while psradm operations are running on a domain might cause a system panic.

6499304 CPU isn't offlined and unexpected message is displayed on console when many correctable error(CE) occurs.

Example:

SUNW-MSG-ID: FMD-8000-11, TYPE:

Defect, VER: 1, SEVERITY: Minor

EVENT-TIME: Fri Feb 2 18:31:07 JST 2007

PLATFORM: SPARC-Enterprise, CSN:

BE80601035, HOSTNAME: FF2-35-0

None available at this time.

This bug has been fixed in Solaris 10 8/07.

If problem occurred, implement the following workaround:

1.Remove the following file.

#rm /var/fm/fmd/ckpt/cpumem- diagnosis/cpumem-diagnosis

2.Restart fmd service.

#svcadm restart fmd

To avoid this problem in advance,

add "rm -f /var/fm/fmd/ckpt/cpumem- diagnosis/cpumem-diagnosis" in /lib/svc/method/svc-dumpadm file as below.

#

#We haven't run savecore on a dump device yet

savedev=none

rm -f /var/fm/fmd/ckpt/cpumem- diagnosis/cpumem-diagnosis

#

This bug has been fixed in Solaris 10 8/07.
