Description
SMI Link Spare Lane Is Reported as Faulty
Issue:
The Scalable Memory Interconnect (SMI) link that connects the processor to a memory buffer
includes a spare lane in each direction to provide redundancy in the event that one of the other lanes
in the link fails. This spare lane will not be used unless one of the other lanes in the link fails. Under
certain rare circumstances this spare lane is reported as faulty when booting the system. Oracle
ILOM will detect this error and diagnose a fault.memory.intel.branch.spare-lane-failover fault that
is attributed to the memory riser to which the lane is routed. The spare lane is provided only for
redundancy and there is no impact to normal system operation if the link does not experience an
additional lane failure. There is no performance impact associated with this error.
Affected Hardware:
■ Sun Fire X4470 Server
Workaround:
Clear the riser fault and power cycle the system using the following Oracle ILOM command-line
interface (CLI) command:
x y
set /SYS/MB/P /MR / clear_fault_action=true
Where x y identifies the riser the fault was reported against. If the fault recurs, contact your
P /MR
Oracle service representative.
