6551356 The system panics when running hotplug
(cfgadm(1M)) to configure a previously
unconfigured card. The message "WARNING:
PCI Expansion ROM is not accessible" will be
seen on the console shortly before the system
panic. The following cards are affected by this
defect:
• X4447A-Z, PCI-e Quad-port Gigabit
Ethernet Adapter UTP
• X1027A-Z1, PCI-e Dual 10 Gigabit Ethernet
Fiber XFP Low profile Adapter
Perform cfgadm -c disconnect to
completely remove the card. After waiting at
least 10 seconds, the card may be configured
back into the domain using the cfgadm -c
configure command.
Check for the patch 127741-01 for this defect.
6556742 The system panics when DiskSuite can not
read the metadb during DR. This bug affects
the following cards:
• SG-XPCIE2FC-QF4, 4Gb PCI-e Dual-Port
Fibre Channel HBA
• SG-XPCIE1FC-QF4, 4Gb PCI-e Single-Port
Fibre Channel HBA
• SG-XPCI2FC-QF4, 4Gb PCI-X Dual-Port
Fibre Channel HBA
• SG-XPCI1FC-QF4, 4Gb PCI-X Single-Port
Fibre Channel HBA
Panic can be avoided when a duplicated copy
of the metadb is accessible via another Host
Bus Adaptor.
Check for the patch 125166-06 for this detect.
6559504 Messages of the form nxge: NOTICE:
nxge_ipp_eccue_valid_check: rd_ptr = nnn

6563785 Hot-plug operation with the following cards
might fail if a card is disconnected and then
immediately reconnected:
• SG-XPCIE2SCSIU320Z Sun StorageTek PCI-
E Dual-Port Ultra320 SCSI HBA
• SGXPCI2SCSILM320-Z Sun StorageTek PCI
Dual-Port Ultra320 SCSI HBA
After disconnecting a card, wait for a few

6564332 Hot-plug operations on Sun Crypto
Accelerator (SCA)6000 cards can cause SPARC
Enterprise M8000/M9000 servers to panic or
hang.
Version 1.0 of the SCA6000 driver does not
support hot-plug and should not be attempted.
Version 1.1 of the SCA6000 driver and
firmware supports hot-plug operations after
the required bootstrap firmware upgrade has
been performed.
