1.4.4 Displaying System Faults
The ALOM CMT CLI showfaults command displays the following kinds of faults:
■ Environmental or configuration faults – System configuration faults, or
temperature or voltage problems that might be caused by faulty FRUs (power
supplies, fans, or blower), or by room temperature or blocked air flow to the
server.
■ POST detected faults – Faults on devices detected by the power-on self-test
diagnostics.
■ PSH detected faults – Faults detected by the Solaris Predictive Self-healing (PSH)
technology
Use the showfaults command for the following reasons:
■ To see if any faults have been diagnosed in the system.
■ To verify that the replacement of a FRU has cleared the fault and not generated
any additional faults.
● At the sc> prompt, type the showfaults command.
The following showfaults command examples show the different kinds of
output from the showfaults command:
showkeyswitch Displays the status of the virtual keyswitch.
showlocator Displays the current state of the Locator LED as either on or off.
showlogs [-b lines | -e lines |
-v] [-g lines][-p
logtype[r|p]]]
Displays the history of all events logged in the ALOM CMT event buffers
(in RAM or the persistent buffers).
showplatform [-v] Displays information about the host system’s hardware configuration, the
system serial number, and whether the hardware is providing service.
