If a fatal error is detected by POST or OpenBoot firmware, the system does not
boot regardless of the settings of auto-boot? or auto-boot-on-error?. Fatal
nonrecoverable errors include the following:
Any CPU failed
All logical memory banks failed
Flash RAM cyclical redundancy check (CRC) failure
Critical field-replaceable unit (FRU) PROM configuration data failure
Critical system configuration card (SCC) read failure
Critical application-specific integrated circuit (ASIC) failure
For more information about troubleshooting fatal errors, refer to the service manual
for your server.

Reset Scenarios

Three ALOM CMT configuration variables, diag_mode, diag_level, and
diag_trigger, control whether the system runs firmware diagnostics in response
to system reset events.
The standard system reset protocol bypasses POST completely unless the virtual
keyswitch or ALOM CMT variables and are set as follows:
Virtual Keyswitch Setting for Reset Scenario

TABLE 2-3

Keyswitch
Value
virtual keyswitch
diag
ALOM CMT Variable Settings for Reset Scenario
TABLE 2-4
Variable
Value
normal or service
diag_mode
min or max
diag_level
diag_trigger
power-on-reset error-reset
The default settings for these variables are:
diag_mode = normal
diag_level = min
diag_trigger = power-on-reset
Therefore, ASR is enabled by default. For instructions, see
