6. Use the POST and OpenBoot diagnostics tools to diagnose system problems.
When the system initiates the startup sequence, it will run POST and OpenBoot
diagnostics during system startup. For more information about these tools, see
“Diagnostics and Troubleshooting” in the Sun Fire 880 Server Service Manual.
7. If the system is able to reboot, review the contents of /var/adm/messages for
more information about the system’s state. Look for the following information.
■ Any large gaps in the time stamp of Solaris or application messages.
■ Warning messages about any hardware or software components.
■ Information from last root logins to determine if any system administrators can
add any comments about the system state at the time of the hang.
