Preface

The SPARCclassic/SPARCclassic X/SPARCstation LX Service Manual describes how to:

Identify system problems by running diagnostic programs

Remove and replace customer replaceable units (CRUs)

This book is written for Sun Field Service representatives, original equipment
manufacturers (OEMs), value-added resellers (VARs), and other customers with self-
maintenance contracts.

Document Organization

This book is divided into seven parts. A table at the beginning of each part lists the
chapters, sections and their page numbers.

Part 1, “System Information,“ describes an overview of the SPARCclassic™/
SPARCclassic X/SPARCstation™ product line’s standard features, and its external
options.

Part 2, “Troubleshooting,“ provides a troubleshooting overview; explains how to
run the Power-On Self-Test (POST) and other system diagnostics; and gives
troubleshooting procedures for some frequently encountered problems.

Part 3, “Preparing for Service,“ explains safety requirements, the symbols used in
this book, the tools required for replacing customer replaceable units, and how to
shut down, power off, and power on the system.

Part 4, “Subassembly Removal and Replacement,“ describes how to open and
close the system, attach and remove a wrist strap, and remove and replace
subassemblies.

Part 5, “System Board,“ provides an overview of the system board, and describes
how to remove and replace the system board, replaceable parts, and components
on the system board.
