Hi
I have a Sun UltraSPARC IIi (440 MHz) that last week did not boot and gave
these two warnings at boot time:
WARNING:Invalid IDPROM contents
WARNING: time-of-day chip unresponsive; dead batteries? 
Can someone explain these WARNINGS ? Also today I was able to boot the
machine. It only gave me the "time-of-day" chip WARNING at boot time. When
the machine came up the system time was Dec 31, 1967 
All my applications are running on this OS is TOD based.. Please Help me out


Regards,
Prakash
