Sun Expert3D-Lite PCI graphics accelerator card
hangs system (BugID 4474181)
The Sun Expert3D-Lite™ PCI graphics accelerator card (Sun part number X3684A) is
not supported in Sun Fire 880 systems. If you use this card on a Sun Fire 880 system,
the system may hang under the Solaris Common Desktop Environment when certain
windows are resized. In some cases, the system may lock with a black screen and
you will be unable to reboot the system.
Note – For further information about this issue, see the SunSolve Online web site.
CPU/Memory slot fault LEDs do not light for
overtemperature conditions (BugID 4451164)
On Sun Fire 880 systems running the Solaris 8 7/01 or 8 10/01 operating
environment, the Fault LED associated with each CPU/Memory board slot does not
light in response to a CPU overtemperature condition. However, the front panel
System Fault and Thermal Fault LEDs do light under these conditions and the
system generates a warning message that indicates which CPU is the source of the
problem.
Note – Patch 110849-08 or later fixes this issue. See “Required And Recommended
Software Patches” on page 3.
SCSI warning when running SunVTS with an
attached D1000 disk array (BugID 4482342)
If you use SunVTS 4.4 software on a Sun Fire 880 server that is connected to a Sun
StorEdge™ D1000 disk array, the system will generate SCSI warning messages
immediately after you invoke SunVTS software. The body of each warning message
contains the following text:
Resetting scsi bus, data overrun
These warnings result from a problem in the SunVTS diagnostic code and should not
be interpreted as a problem with the server or attached disk array.
Note – Patch 111854-01 or later fixes this issue. See “Required And Recommended
Software Patches” on page 3.
