Saw a lot of this at my last job.  CPU0 had an Ecache error.  Sun recommends
if this was the first
occurrence, leave the CPU in.  If you get a second occurrence, replace the
CPU.  This was really not
the answer we wanted to hear from Sun, as this will cause your server to be
down three times to
replace the CPU, initial CPU panic, second CPU panic and CPU replacement.
 
In some instances the second CPU panic never occurs.
 
In answer to your question, It is possibly a bad CPU.  Log a call with Sun,
send them the core dump,
and explorer output.

Hi ..
I have 220R with 2*450Mhz processors and 1Gb of Memeory..OS is Solaris-7
Yesterday the system crashed with a core dump and i got the following
messages
logged in /var/adm/messages:::
 
unix: panic[cpu0]/thread=300002216a0:

CPU0 Ecache Writeback Data Parity Error: AFSR 0x00000000.00800004 AFAR
0x000001fe.01800800
 
Savecore: reboot after panic: CPU0 Ecache Writeback Data Parity Error: AFSR
0x00000000.00800004 AFAR 0x000001fe.01800800
