Problem with DR Attach on Sun
Enterprise Platforms

DR attach does not configure

ce

interfaces on Sun Enterprise™ 10000 platforms

running the Solaris 2.6 operating environment. To add DR support for ce interfaces
on such systems, make the following changes:

1. Add the following lines to the

/etc/system

file:

2. Reboot system.

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

set dr:detach_safe_list1="ce"

set hswp:suspend_safe_list1="ce"
