Third-Party Web Scan and Test Tools Cause Sluggish Oracle ILOM Performance
Issue:
Under certain conditions, third-party web scanning and test tools can cause Oracle ILOM to run
extremely slowly.
Affected Software:
System software release 1.7.0 and 1.7.1.
Workaround:
Install system software release 1.7.2 or newer.
Attempting to Use a CD/DVD Drive as the System Boot Device Might Fail
Issue:
If you want to set the system boot device to be a CD/DVD drive, and you do so by issuing the
set boot_device=cdrom command, you might encounter an error message or a boot failure when
performing a system boot from the Oracle ILOM remote console. This issue occurs because, in the
Sun Fire X4470 server, the default CD/DVD drive is the one physically installed in the Sun Fire
X4770 system. Thus, if you load the image from the remote console, Oracle ILOM creates a new
virtual CD drive in the boot list, which is different from the default CD/DVD that is physically
located in the system. As a result, an error message is displayed, or the system boot fails.
Affected Software:
■ Release 1.3, or later
Workaround:
To initiate a system boot from the Oracle ILOM remote console, use the set /SP/bootlist
bootdev=<device_number> command instead. The system will boot successfully from the specified
device in the command.
When Flashing a New Oracle ILOM Image, Additional Steps Are Required Due to Service
Processor DRAM Expanded to 256 MB
Issue:
With Software Release 1.3, or later, service processor (SP) DRAM has been expanded from 128
MB to 256 MB. This change in SP DRAM size requires that you perform additional steps when
upgrading or downgrading the Oracle ILOM image on the Sun Fire X4470 Server. Note that if you
do not perform the steps listed in the workaround, Oracle ILOM will work abnormally and you will
encounter unexpected errors.
Affected Software:
■ Release 1.3, or later
