Goal

Correcting an invalid or misconfigured brandid on a configured Mx000 xscfu.

An incorrect brandid can be identified by typing <tab><tab> at the XSCF prompt with the current user in "Normal" mode. This sequence will display a list of all available commands. If the command "enablecodboard" is present in the list, then the brandid is set incorrectly.

Solution

NOTE:  Internal only process

1. Login to the xscf and initiate an escalation mode session. 
   
   Refer to <Document 1002928.1> for the necessary steps.
   In step #3 'enableescalation' and 'escalation' should be substituted for 'enableservice' and 'service'.
   
   
   
2. Disable root logins:
   
   escalation# usermod -s/bin/false root
   
   
   
3. dumpconfig to the USB Stick (preferred):
   
   escalation# dumpconfig -v file:///media/usb_msd/m5000usb.cfg
   Making sure mount point is clear
   Trying to mount USB device /dev/sda1 as /media/usb_msd
   Mounted USB device
   file ./media/usb_msd/proxytest.cfg. already exists
   Do you want to overwrite this file? [y|n]: y
   removing file .file:///media/usb_msd/proxytest.cfg. ... done
   reading database ... ..............*done
   creating temporary file ... done
   starting file transfer ...transfer from ./tmp/dumpconfig.HE1RZa. to .file:///media/usb_msd/san-ff1-54.cfg.
   done
   removing temporary file ... done
   operation completed
   Unmounted USB device
4. or Dumpconfig across the network
   
   escalation# dumpconfig -u username ftp://129.157.206.83/m4000.cfg
   Password:
   operation completed
5. Check the current brandidsetting:  ( 1 = SUN,  2 = FUJITSU,  3 = FSC )
   escalation# /scf/bin/brandid
   SunMC : off
   REMCS : on
   RCI : on
   DIMM-PCE : off
   DIDR : off
   SPDR : on
   SvcTag : off
   brandid : 2 <===
   display : 2
   escalation#
   
   
   
6. Set the correct brandid:
   
   escalation# /scf/bin/brandid -s brandid=1
   brandid : 2 -> 1
   
   
   
7. Verify the correct brandid is set ( see step 5 ).
   
   Settings will take effect the next time the platform is powered
   
   
   
8. Clear the fru area:
   
   escalation# /hcp0/scfprog/bin/clearfru  # command may be located /scf/bin/clearfru
   
   
   
9. Restore factory defaults:
   
   escalation# /scf/init/scf_initetc/setdefaults factory
   setdefaults will execute
   XSCF : all data clear
   OPNL : all data clear (exclude SYSTEM ID data)
   *** XSCF reboot then execute clear operation automatically. ***
   Are you OK? [y|n] : y
   ..... From here is shown the reboot log ......
   ***** WARNING *****
   XSCF initialization terminate for XSCF/OPNL data clear.
   execute "setdefaults factory" (AUTO)
   setdefaults : FACTORY mode clear : start
   setdefaults : FACTORY mode clear : DBS start
   setdefaults : FACTORY mode clear : wait 20s for DBS initialization
   initialize OPNL SEEPROM 1/6 -- complete
   initialize OPNL SEEPROM 2/6 -- complete
   initialize OPNL SEEPROM 3/6 -- complete
   initialize OPNL SEEPROM 4/6 -- complete
   initialize OPNL SEEPROM 5/6 -- complete
   initialize OPNL SEEPROM 6/6 -- complete
   setdefaults : FACTORY mode clear : OPNL reset complete
   
   ..... output deleted for readability .....
   setdefaults : FACTORY mode clear : log data clear complete
   setdefaults : FACTORY mode clear : NVRAM(PAGE#0) clear complete
   setdefaults : FACTORY mode clear : NVRAM(PAGE#1) clear complete
   
   ..... output deleted for readability .....
   XSCF BOOT STOP (recover by NFB-OFF/ON)
10. Power cycle the system.
    
    
    Step 11) and 12) are ONLY necessary if the earlier dumpconfig was done across the network.
    For restoreconfig from the USB Stick proceed with step 13).
11. Set up a user  to do the restoreconfig:
    
    XSCF> adduser username
    XSCF> setprivileges username platadm useradm auditadm fieldeng mode
    XSCF> password username
    New XSCF password:
    Retype new XSCF password:
    
    
    
12. The next section is ONLY necessary if the dumpconfig was done across the network.
    
    Login as username
    XSCF> setnetwork xscf#0-lan#0 -m 255.255.255.0 10.16.80.224
    XSCF> setroute -c add -n 0.0.0.0 -g 10.16.80.1 xscf#0-lan#0
    XSCF> sethostname -d cte.sun.com
    XSCF> sethostname xscf#0 v4u-m4000a-xscf-epar03
    XSCF> applynetwork
    The following network settings will be applied:
     xscf#0 hostname :v4u-m4000a-xscf-epar03  DNS domain name :cte.sun.com
     interface :xscf#0-lan#0
     status :up  IP address :10.16.80.224
     netmask :255.255.255.0
     route :-n 0.0.0.0 -m 0.0.0.0 -g 10.16.80.1
     interface :xscf#0-lan#1
     status :down
     IP address :
     netmask :
     route :
    Continue? [y|n] :y
    XSCF>  restoreconfig -u username ftp://129.157.206.83/m4000.cfg
    
    
    
13. Or run restoreconfig from the USB stick:
    
    XSCF>  restoreconfig -v file:///media/usb_msd/m5000usb.cfg
    
    
    
14. After restoreconfig from network or USB stick the system will need to be power cycled.
    
    
15. Log back in and disablemodes:
    
    XSCF> showmodes
    Current mode: normal
    Enabled for: escalation
    Expires: Sun Jan 25 14:44:24 2009
    XSCF> disablemodes
    XSCF> showmodes
    Current mode: normal
