OpenBoot PROM Enhancements for Diagnostic
Operation
OpenBoot PROM Version 4.15 provides enhanced diagnostics that are enabled by
default. Full OpenBoot Diagnostics run at power-on. For more information about
these enhancements, the new and redefined configuration variables, and the new
standard (default) configuration, refer to OpenBoot PROM Enhancements for
Diagnostic Operation, which is available on the Sun Fire V890 Documentation CD
included with the Sun Fire V890 server.
These diagnostics change the behavior of some applications that detect and report
information about the server. For example, enhanced diagnostics change some
reporting and console functionality in Sun™ Remote System Control (RSC) software.
Refer to
"Software Issues" on page 14
In addition, the diagnostics change the behavior of the server LEDs during startup.
While power-on self-test (POST) is executing, the Power and System Fault LEDs
blink simultaneously. After POST has completed and OpenBoot Diagnostics run, the
LEDs return to normal function.
Note – These diagnostics can result in increased boot time.
