n/a
When the system is initialized, firmware is
loaded and occupies approximately 128 MB to
352 MB of the host memory. The banner and
other software utilities report an amount of
memory minus the amount of memory that is
occupied by firmware.
When viewing the amount of memory in the
banner, be aware that the banner reports the
amount less what is used by the firmware.
n/a
An RJ45 cable may sometimes be difficult to
disconnect from an RJ45 port of an Ethernet card
mounted in the SPARC Enterprise T5120.
In this event, disconnect the cable while keeping
the RJ45 cable connector tab depressed, such as
with a plastic card.
(Bug ID
6581309)
To use the XVR-300 as a console of the SPARC
Enterprise T5xx0, patch 137111-01 or later must
be applied.
If the patch is applied after the OBP variable has
been changed to use the XVR-300 as the console,
console output will revert to the default ILOM
console during the Solaris boot sequence.
To use the XVR-300 as a console, apply patch
137111-01 or later to the Solaris OS before
changing the OBP variable.
Alternatively, install the Solaris OS (or reinstall
it) with ILOM set as the console used, and then
apply the patch.
No GUI can be used during that time.
After the patch has been applied, the XVR-300
can be used as the console as soon as the OBP
variable is changed.
