2.Use the output of this command to clear the fault as shown in Section 2.7.2, “Clearing PSH Detected Faults” on page 2-45.

If fmadm faulty does not identify a faulty component or if you need more detailed information, type the fmdump command.

2.7.1.2Using the fmdump Command

The fmdump command displays the list of faults detected by the Solaris PSH facility. Use this command for the following reasons:

To see if any faults have been detected by the Solaris PSH facility.

To obtain the fault message ID (SUNW-MSG-ID) for detected faults.

To verify that the replacement of a FRU has not generated any additional faults.

If you already have a fault message ID, go to Step 2 to obtain more information about the fault from the Sun Predictive Self-Healing Knowledge Article web site.

Note – Faults detected by the Solaris PSH facility are also reported through ILOM alerts. In addition to the PSH fmdump command, the ILOM show /SYS/ command also provides information about faults and displays fault UUIDs. See Section 2.5.3, “Displaying System Faults” on page 2-21.

1.Check the event log by typing the fmdump command with -vfor verbose output.

For example:

#fmdump -v

SUNW-MSG-ID

Apr 24 06:54:08.2005 lce22523-lc80-6062-e61d-f3b39290ae2c SUN4V- 8000-6H

100% fault.cpu.ultraSPARCT2l2cachedata FRU:hc:///component=MB

rsrc: cpu:///cpuid=0/serial=22D1D6604A

In this example, a fault is displayed, indicating the following details:

Date and time of the fault (Apr 24 06:54:08.2005)

Universal Unique Identifier (UUID) that is unique for every fault (lce22523- lc80-6062-e61d-f3b39290ae2c)

Sun message identifier (SUNW4V-8000-6H) that can be used to obtain additional fault information

Faulted FRU (FRU:hc:///component=MB). In this example it is identified as MB, indicating that the motherboard requires replacement.

2. Use the Sun message ID to obtain more information about this type of fault.
