    How to fix Sun Microsystems SUN BLADE 150 Storage system not recognizing hot-plugged devices?
    • J
      John GrahamSep 2, 2025
      If your Sun Microsystems Storage system isn't recognizing external devices hot-plugged into the IEEE 1394 connectors, it might be because the buses for the connectors are in low-power mode. To activate the buses, start an application that the hot-plugged device uses. For example, starting ShowMe TV activates the buses when the application searches for cameras or other connected devices. You can also set your Power Management software to the Minimal setting to turn off power management to the buses.

      Heather WongSep 5, 2025
      If pressing the eject button on the CD-ROM or DVD-ROM drive of your Sun Microsystems Storage system doesn't eject the media tray, the drive might be in low-power mode. To activate the peripheral drives that are in low-power mode, move the mouse or press any key on the keyboard.

    Why doesn't power LED blink on Sun Microsystems Storage in low-power mode?
    • G
      Gloria McmillanSep 12, 2025
      If your Sun Microsystems Storage workstation appears to be in low-power mode, but the power-indicator LED does not blink, it may be because a tape drive is connected to your workstation. Because tape drives do not enter low-power mode, the power-indicator LED does not blink. The power-indicator LED only blinks when all workstation components are in low-power mode.
