SUMMARY(3): This is a follow-up to my previous summary. Oracle has not fixed this issue yet, unfortunately. If you run into this issue, I encourage you to open a support case. I got reports and confirmed myself that this is still an issue in the Oracle Solaris 10 09/10 release. The only other workaround provided by Oracle so far was to disable the CPU power management features in the BIOS. My test system seems to be working fine after I disabled the C-State CPU Power Management feature in the BIOS and disabled the Solaris power daemon (svcadm disable power). Bertold SUMMARY(2): This is a follow-up to my message I sent 12/17/2009. I have been working with Sun support every since. Sun suggested disabling CPU power management. Unfortunately, this did not resolve the issue. The only workaround I have found so far was to downgrade to Solaris 10 5/09. I have been running several x2270 systems using Solaris 10 5/09 without any hangs for several weeks. ORIGINAL ISSUE: I have Sun Fire x2270 system running Solaris 10 10/09 and using 4 internal SATA disks. The disks in this system are mirrored 4-way using ZFS. The system locks up every 2-3 days. When this happens, I can't login from the console (I can only enter the login name, but I never get to the password prompt). After power cycling the server, - fmdump does not show any errors, - /var/crash/<hostname> is empty, - ZFS utilities don't indicate any disk errors, - the service processor's event log has no relevant records, - and the below lines can be seen in /var/adm/messages (i.e. these are the last messages in the log before the reboot): Dec 5 22:55:56 x2270-17 ahci: [ID 517647 kern.warning] WARNING: ahci0: watchdog port 2 satapkt 0xfffffe9a07ea2540 timed out Dec 5 22:56:11 x2270-17 ahci: [ID 517647 kern.warning] WARNING: ahci0: watchdog port 0 satapkt 0xfffffe9a07ea21c0 timed out Dec 5 22:56:11 x2270-17 ahci: [ID 517647 kern.warning] WARNING: ahci0: watchdog port 0 satapkt 0xfffffe9a07ea0380 timed out Dec 5 22:56:11 x2270-17 ahci: [ID 517647 kern.warning] WARNING: ahci0: watchdog port 1 satapkt 0xfffffe9a07e71b60 timed out Dec 5 22:56:11 x2270-17 ahci: [ID 517647 kern.warning] WARNING: ahci0: watchdog port 1 satapkt 0xffffffffaec87b68 timed out Dec 5 22:56:11 x2270-17 ahci: [ID 517647 kern.warning] WARNING: ahci0: watchdog port 1 satapkt 0xfffffe996cdb4e08 timed out Dec 5 22:56:11 x2270-17 ahci: [ID 517647 kern.warning] WARNING: ahci0: watchdog port 1 satapkt 0xfffffe996cdbac48 timed out Dec 5 22:56:11 x2270-17 ahci: [ID 517647 kern.warning] WARNING: ahci0: watchdog port 3 satapkt 0xfffffe996ec23b60 timed out Dec 5 22:56:11 x2270-17 ahci: [ID 517647 kern.warning] WARNING: ahci0: watchdog port 3 satapkt 0xfffffe9a07e56d28 timed out The system is on the latest firmware/BIOS/service processor release available from Sun. --- Bertold Kolics <bertold.kolics@unboundid.com> Phone: +1.512.600.7706, Fax: +1.512.600.7799 [demime 1.01b removed an attachment of type application/pkcs7-signature which had a name of smime.p7s] _______________________________________________ sunmanagers mailing list sunmanagers@sunmanagers.org http://www.sunmanagers.org/mailman/listinfo/sunmanagersReceived on Wed Nov 24 19:20:02 2010
