To improve system stability on Intel processor model 5400 when running
Oracle Solaris 10 11/06 and Oracle Solaris
10 08/07 kernel patch 127112-05 should be applied. Patch 127112-05 is available at:
http://sunsolve.sun.com/show.do?target=patchpage |
| (2) |
Limited to 32-bit support only hyperthreads may not be available under
Oracle Solaris 10 1/06. The Oracle Solaris 10 6/06 release corrects this issue.
- In certain hardware configurations of these servers running the
Oracle Solaris 10 1/06 release, some devices may not be recognized (such as the Smart Array controller) or
Oracle Solaris may appear to hang during boot. A workaround for such symptoms is to set the "pci-reprog" option to a value of "off." This may be done on the GRUB "kernel" line (such as when booting
Oracle Solaris from CD-ROM): kernel ... -B install-media=cdrom,pci-reprog=off
- This option may need to be set during installation in order to successfully install the operating system. This option may also be persistently set using the eeprom (1M) command (once installation is complete).
- Kernel patch 118855-19 should be applied when running Oracle Solaris 10 1/06 or
Oracle Solaris 10 6/06 on these servers in order to improve system stability when the following Intel Xeon processor models are used: 5110, 5120, 5130, 5140, 5150, and 5160.

The Embedded Ethernet adapter (NC326i with the Broadcom 5715s chipset) requires the Broadcom NetXtreme Ethernet controller driver for
Oracle Solaris 10. The driver is available at:

Oracle Solaris 10 media,
prior to Oracle Solaris 10 5/09, does not contain a driver for the Embedded Ethernet
adapter (NC326i with the Broadcom 5715s chipset). You can obtain the driver as
follows:
A) For Servers running Oracle Solaris 10 10/08 or 5/08, use Sun patch 140120-01
available
here
B) For Servers running Oracle Solaris 10 updates prior to 5/08, use the Broadcom
NetXtreme Ethernet controller driver available
here |
