Additional Information
After replacing the FRU, perform the procedure to clear PSH
detected faults.

Determine if the fault
was detected by POST.
POST performs basic tests of the server components and reports
faulty FRUs. When POST detects a faulty FRU, it logs the fault
and if possible, takes the FRU offline. POST detected FRUs
display the following text in the fault message:
FRU-name
deemed faulty and disabled
In this case, replace the FRU and run the procedure to clear
POST detected faults.

Contact Sun for
Support.
The majority of hardware faults are detected by the server's
diagnostics. In rare cases, a problem might require additional
troubleshooting. If you are unable to determine the cause of the
problem, contact Sun for support.

1.2.1
Memory Configuration and Fault Handling
A variety of features play a role in how the memory subsystem is configured and how memory
faults are handled. Understanding the underlying features helps you identify and repair memory
problems. This section describes how the memory is configured and how the server deals with
memory faults.
1.2.1.1
Memory Configuration
In the server memory there are 16 slots that hold DDR-2 memory FB-DIMMs in the following
FB-DIMM sizes:
■
1 Gbyte (maximum of 32 Gbyte)
■
2 Gbyte (maximum of 64 Gbyte)
■
4 Gbyte (maximum of 128 Gbyte)
■
8 Gbyte (maximum of 256 Gbyte)
FB-DIMMs are installed in groups of 8, called
ranks
(ranks 0 and 1). At minimum, rank 0 must
be fully populated with eight FB-DIMMs of the same capacity. A second rank of FB-DIMMs of
the same capacity can be added to fill rank 1.
“4.9 Servicing FB-DIMMs” on page 100
for instructions about adding memory to a
server.
