[SunHELP] Hardware diagnostics for SUN

[Melinda Taylor]

Ah thanks I have enabled var crash and checked dmesg and there
are some messages there but interpretation is the hard thing.
I have searched dejanews for similar meesages. The main
one is before the crash I see:

panic: cv_unsleep: thread f6156160 not on sleepq f0288ab4
syncing file systems... [133] 1368panic: panic sync timeout
 4568 static and sysmap kernel pages
  108 dynamic kernel data pages
  543 kernel-pageable pages
    6 segkmap kernel pages
    0 segvn kernel pages

 5225 total pages (5225 chunks)

ANy ideas or can you recommend a good site to help interpret
this info?

==>Hi,
==>For hardware diagnostic, you can use SUNVTS, it comes with the OS CD PACK.
==> you have to enable savecore in order to create /var/crash by system in the
==>case of PANIC situation.
==>You should uncomment savecore area  on of the scripts in /etc/rc2.d to
==>enable savecore. (SOL 8 default enabled).
==>If the OS is SOL 2.6 there  is a patch for crash dump also.
