Solution

WHAT SKILLS DOES THE ENGINEER NEED:(IS A SITE ENGINEER AVAILABLE?)
T5220 Product Knowledge or Training

TIME ESTIMATE: 190 minutes

Task Complexity: 1

FIELD ENGINEER INSTRUCTIONS

PROBLEM OVERVIEW: Faulty PDB

WHAT STATE SHOULD THE SYSTEM BE IN TO BE READY TO PERFORM THE RESOLUTION ACTIVITY? :
A data backup is not a pre-requisite but is a wise precaution.
Customer should shut the operating system down gracefully (using "init 0"), and after the system has shut down Switch from the system console to the -> prompt by typing the #. (Hash Period) key sequence. At the -> prompt, type the stop /SYS command.  Also note chassis serial number and server part number, printed on a label located on side of chassis.

WHAT ACTION DOES THE ENGINEER NEED TO TAKE:
*** Follow standard ESD procedures to avoid Electrostatic Discharge
1. Disconnect all power cables
2. Remove the Top Cover

Removal of PDB:
1. Remove the power supplies
2. Remove the the optical media drive
3. Remove the the hard drives
4. Remove the the mass storage assembly.
5. Remove the screws that secure the power board to the chassis  & lift the power board out of the chassis.

Installation of PDB:
1. Lower the power board into the chassis, aligning the board’s holes with the standoffs in the chassis.
2. Install the screws firmly to secure the power board to the chassis.
3. Install the mass storage assembly
4. Install the hard drives
5. Install the optical media drive
6. Install the power supplies.

Completion of replacement:
1. Install Top Cover.
2. Connect all power cables.
3. At the ALOM CMT command line interface, use the setcsn command to set the chassis serial number and the setcpn command to set the server part number on the power distribution board.

sc> setsc sc_servicemode true
Warning: misuse of this mode may invalidate your warranty.
sc> setcsn -c "chassis_serial_number"
Are you sure you want to permanently set the Chassis Serial Number to chassis_serial_number [y/n]?
y
setcsn: Chassis serial number recorded.
sc> setcpn -p "chassis_part_number"
Are you sure you want to permanently set the Chassis Part Number to chassis_part_number [y/n]?
y
setcpn: Chassis part number recorded.

OBTAIN CUSTOMER ACCEPTANCE

WHAT ACTION DOES THE FE/CUSTOMER NEED TO TAKE TO RETURN THE SYSTEM TO AN OPERATIONAL STATE:

Boot system and monitor boot sequence for errors. Test functionality of system:
1. Run the Solaris "fmadm faulty" and SP/ILOM "show faulty" command (if only ALOM is supported run "showfaults -v" command) to verify that the fault has been cleared.
2. Perform one of the following tasks based on your verification results:
   * If the previous steps did not clear the fault, refer to doc 1004229.1 for information about the tools and methods you can use to diagnose and clear component faults.
   * If the previous steps indicate that no faults have been detected, then the component has been replaced successfully. No further action is required
3. Restart software applications per applicable administration guides to resume system operation.
