Predictive Self-Healing

The Sun Fire T1000 server features the latest fault management technologies. With
the Solaris 10 Operating System (OS), Sun is introducing a new architecture for
building and deploying systems and services capable of predictive self-healing. Self-
healing technology enables Sun systems to accurately predict component failures
and mitigate many serious problems before they actually occur. This technology is
incorporated into both the hardware and software of the Sun Fire T2000 server.

At the heart of the predictive self-healing capabilities is the Solaris Fault Manager, a
new service that receives data relating to hardware and software errors, and
automatically and silently diagnoses the underlying problem. Once a problem is
diagnosed, a set of agents automatically responds by logging the event, and if
necessary, takes the faulty component offline. By automatically diagnosing
problems, business-critical applications and essential system services can continue
uninterrupted in the event of software failures, or major hardware component
failures.
