describes the problems you may encounter in using the GigaSwift
Ethernet adapter as well as a solution for them:
TABLE D-2
Troubleshooting the GigaSwift Ethernet Adapter
Problem
Description
Solution
prtdiag
does not
recognize the NIC in
slot 0.
If a PCI I/O board of an UltraSPARC III system is filled
with network adapters with an internal bridge (for
example, GigaSwift Ethernet or Quad FastEthernet),
prtdiag
displays the card on slot 0. Although the card
in slot 1 is not recognized by
prtdiag
, the card is fully
operational and appears in the
/etc/path_to_inst
file.
Use
prtconf -pv
instead of
prtdiag
VLAN appears to
accept VID 0 as end
user input.
ce000000
,
ce00000,
or
ce0000
configured as VID
0
is actually the regular
ce0
interface not VID
0
of the
ce0
interface. VID
0
is not supported as an end user
device.
This is normal behavior.
System panics in
Solaris 7 11/99
environment when
CPR attempts to
suspend a non-
suspendable thread
The GigaSwift Ethernet driver uses certain not
suspendable kernel threads. When CPR attempts to
suspend the driver, the system panics. Currently, CPR is
supported only in Sun desktop systems (for example,
Ultra 10 and Ultra 60).
• Turn off CPR.
• A CPR fix is
incorporated in Solaris 8.
Inetboot
may require
several retries to
complete with OBP 4.x
Systems with OBP 4.x (for example, Sun Blade 1000)
may automatically retry several times before
completing. The message below is displayed for each
retry:
Retrying . . .
Check TFTP server and network setup
Ignore these console
messages until booting is
complete
