The system passes run
level four then reboots
continuously (rolling
reboot).
1. Power off the platform immediately after the system
reboots.
2. Remove one optional circuit card (for example, SP, T1,
Tip/Ring).
3. Reboot the system. See “Rebooting the UNIX System,”
in Chapter 3, “Common System Procedures,” in your
platform system maintenance book.
4. Repeat Steps 1–3 until the system reboots properly.
5. Replace the circuit cards.
The system exhibits
rolling reboot when static
kernel size exceeds
8-Mbyte.
1. Reboot the system. See “Rebooting the UNIX System,”
in Chapter 3, “Common System Procedures,” in your
platform system maintenance book.
2. While rebooting the system, hold down the
key
when the system displays the UnixWare graphics.
3. When the system prompts you for a previously saved
kernel, enter
unix.old
or enter the name of a kernel that
you saved manually at a previous time.
This file is created automatically each time the kernel is
rebuilt.
4. To prevent this problem from occurring again, remove
those packages that affect the size of the static kernel
from your configuration permanently. The UnixWare
limitation of the size of the static kernel is maximum of
8Mbyte.
