40 SPARC Enterprise T5120 and T5220 Servers Product Notes • October 2007
Use setdefaults Command to Clear Last POST Run
From showfaults (CR 6573354)
After POST is run, showfaults displays the status. The only way to clear the status
is to enter the setdefaults command. For users familiar with ALOM CMT, the
previous way to clear the status was to enter the resetsc command.
Mouse Redirection is Extremely Slow or Not Usable With
RHEL4U4 Host and Windows XP Client (CR 6502777)
Mouse redirection is extremely slow and could be unusable through javarconsole.
The keyboard redirection is slow but is usable.
Workaround: Use an alternate javarconsole client (Solaris, or Linux) to display the
RHEL4U4 server.
Fewer Than 21 Entries in the Event Log Causes showlogs to
Display None of the Events (CR 6589043)
If there are fewer than 21 entries in the event log, the showlogs command displays
none of the events. This situation is known to occur in the following scenarios:
■ After a fresh installation of the system (out-of-box), the Service Processor (SP)
event log is very likely to have fewer than 21 entries.
■ After you clear the SP event log with the Browser User Interface (BUI) or ILOM
CLI, the ALOM CMT compatibility CLI showlogs command displays no new
events until at least 21 new events are logged.
Workaround: In either of the preceding scenarios, use the showlogs -v option to
display the logs. After 21 or more events are logged in the log file, you can revert
back to using showlogs with no options.
XAUI0 or XAUI1 Disabled With disablecomponent but the
Devices are Still Created in OpenBoot PROM (CR 6599333)
The ASR database does not support disabling XAUI devices. When a XAUI device is
disabled with the disablecomponent command or due to failures detected by
POST, the corresponding network device is still available in the OpenBoot firmware.
