70 SPARC Enterprise Mx000 Servers Product Notes for XCP Version 1121 • February 2016
6614737 O O The DR deleteboard(8) and
moveboard(8) operations might hang
if any of the following
conditions exist:
• A DIMM has been degraded.
• The domain contains system boards
with different memory size.
For Oracle Solaris 10 5/08 or earlier,
this has been in patch 137111-01.
[Workaround]
Avoid performing DR operations if
any of the listed conditions exist.
To determine whether the system
contains degraded memory, use the
XSCF showstatus(8) command. For
sample output, see “Identifying
Degraded Memory in a System” on
page 95.
To determine whether the domain
contains system boards with different
memory sizes, display the list of
memory sizes using the XSCF
showdevices(8) command or the
prtdiag(8) command on the domain.
For sample of output, see “Identifying
Different Memory Sizes in a System
Board” on page 95
If a DR command hangs, reboot the
domain to recover.
6619224 O For Oracle Solaris domains that
include SPARC 64 VII processors, a
single domain of 256 threads (128
cores) or more might hang for an
extended period of time under certain
unusual situations. Upon recovery, the
uptime command will show
extremely high load averages.
This has been fixed in patch 137111-
03.
[Workaround]
For Oracle Solaris domains that
include SPARC 64 VII processors, do
not exceed a domain size of 256
virtual CPUs in a single Oracle Solaris
domain. This means a maximum of 32
CPU chips in a single domain
configuration (maximum
configuration for an M8000 server).
