20 Sun Fire 880 Server Product Notes • December 2001
Sun Fire 880 hardware watchdog feature does not
work with Solaris 8 (BugID 4374518)
The hardware watchdog feature does not work on Sun Fire 880 systems running the
Solaris 8 operating environment. For a description of the hardware watchdog
mechanism, see “About Reliability, Availability, and Serviceability Features” in the
Sun Fire 880 Server Owner’s Guide.
Note – Patches 108528-12 and 109888-13 or later fixes this issue. See “Required And
Recommended Software Patches” on page 3.
Issuing the XIR command from RSC causes the
system to reset (BugID 4411330)
On Sun Fire 880 systems, issuing the XIR command from RSC causes the system to
reset rather than issuing an interrupt placing the system at the OpenBoot prompt.
Note – For further information about this issue, see the SunSolve Online web site.
RSC incorrectly reports an unplugged power
supply as OK (BugID 4421087)
On a Sun Fire 880 system running Remote System Control 2.1 software delivered
with the Solaris 8 7/01 operating environment, if a power supply is unplugged or
has lost AC power for any reason, RSC does not log this as a problem or generate an
alert.
Note – Removing RSC 2.1 and installing RSC 2.2 or later fixes this issue. RSC 2.2 is
delivered with Solaris 8 10/01.
