The database that contains the list of disabled components is called the ASR blacklist (asr-db).

In most cases, POST automatically disables a component when it is faulty. After the cause of the fault is repaired (FRU replacement, loose connector reseated, and so on), you must remove the component from the ASR blacklist.

The ASR commands (TABLE 2-8) enable you to view and manually add or remove components from the ASR blacklist. These commands are run from the ILOM ->prompt. For information about ALOM CMT commands, see the Sun Integrated Lights Out Manager 2.0 Supplement for Sun Blade T6320 Server Modules, 820-2546.

* The showcomponent command might not report all blacklisted DIMMs.

Note – The components (asrkeys) vary from system to system, depending on how many cores and memory are present. Type the showcomponent command to see the asrkeys on a given system.

Note – A reset or powercycle is required after disabling or enabling a component. If the status of a component is changed with power on there is no effect to the system until the next reset or powercycle.
