Who pointed out that if one gets a watchdog reset while the system is
booting the problem
is a CPU problem and you cannot easily determine which CPU is at fault.
Last night the Sun maintenance fellow replaced both CPUs (of course he
brought 2 different
CPU boards and staff had to wait while a matched pair was picked up and
delivered). The system is back up and running.
The following URLs were given for locating Sun Manager Summaries.
The Nexial site uses a fuzzy search engine that is very forgiving.
http://www.latech.edu/sunman.edu
http://www.nexial.nl/cgi-bin/sunmanagers
http://sunsolve.sun.com
http://sunsite.unc.edu:80/sun/inform/sun-info.html
Stefan added that for those of us with email but w/o net access
Even if you do not have full access to the Internet, you can still take
advantage of www.LaTech.edu archives and WAIS via the WAIS mail
server. While this is a primitive tool compared to interactive usage,
it does work. To get information on using the WAIS mail server, send a
message to waismail@quake.think.com with a body containing the single
word "help". If you wish to search the SUMMARY messages from
sun-managers, you can use the "sun-managers-summary.src" source.
Thanks again for the rapid and accurate responses.
