Sun Enterprise[tm] 220R Server: Repair Procedures

This section provides the most common repair procedures for the Enterprise 220R. The written procedures below are links to the Sun Enterprise 220R Server Service Manual (806-1081).

Component Tips
CPU Module
  • Tuning the ecache_scan_rate parameter of the Solaris cache scrubber provides improved Ecache parity error protection on non-mirrored SRAM UltraSPARC II-based systems (FIN I0755-1).
  • The current diagnostic procedure to identify the faulty CPU module from CPU Ecache parity errors is flawed (FIN I0570-3).
  • 440MHz and 450MHz UltraSPARC II Modules in Ultra 60/80, Enterprise 220R/420R and Netra t platforms may experience Red State Exception, Send Mondo Timeout and hard hangs (FCO A0208-3).
Disk Drive
  • The disk drives in the Enterprise 220R are hot-pluggable.
  • Improved drive firmware will reduce the incidence of HDI failures on IBM Discovery disk drives (FIN I0955-1).
PCI Card
  • SunPCi II and SunPCi IIpro cards may not respond after rapid/successive power cycling (FCO A0186-1).
  • Any PCI card may not seat properly and will cause the PCI card not to be recognized by the system, rendering that PCI card inoperable (FCO A0168-1).
  • A host system using the 375-0040-01 or -02 FC100/P FC-AL PCI card to attach to FC-AL storage (StorEdge A5x00 and A3500) may experience loop errors, which may affect data access to that storage (FCO A0164-1).
Power Supply
  • Improper service procedures with the E220R/E420R power supplies could result in system downtime. In addition, under certain circumstances, the hot swapping functionality for the redundant power supplies may fail (FIN I0666-1)
Tape Drive
  • The peripheral D.C. power cable (530-2864-02) is too short to allow the tape drive to be connected to D.C. power (FCO A0166-1).
