Panic cpu0 writeback data parity error
2007-12-25 10:09:00
I still have not been able to determine the cause of CPU(0) panic
error on Ultra-2 with 200 MHz CPU.
But here is the summary that I have tried so far.
Original Question:
To all Sun Manager:
Not long ago, Kun Li has just sent a summary out about panic[cpu0]
problem and tracking down to cpu problem for Ultra 2 167 or 200 Mhz
system.
According to the summary, if the cpu number is 501-4791-02 or later,
the problem will be fixed.
I have looked into our system and found our cpu number is
501-4791-04-5596 but I still experienced system randomly reboot itself
with following error messages on error log.
I just wonder whether the previous summary is correct or not. Or the
error message I got is something else.
Thanks for you feedback and I will summarize.

The system is dual 200-MHz Enterprise Ultra-2
running solaris 2.6. It is less than one month old machine and it has
been randomly rebooted twice.

Summaries:
As Leif suggested to check out the fan on the CPU box and the fan is
working fine.
As Sandeep suggested that this error has been common to a batch of
CPUs from Sun and he suggested to replace them. Our CPU is prtty new
and the number is -04 level, but the problem still appears.
As Colin suggested to run vts to do stress test on the processors and
I have run them but the result was clean, no error at all.
My last chance is to call Sun to come out to swap the CPUs. I will
keep your all posted if I have new finding. It seems to me I am not
the only one running into this problem, I just hope there are some Sun
technical staff on this list to shed some light on this issue. I am
new to the Sun Server and it is brand new system and yet it is such an
unreliable box for production deployment. I am kind of disappointed
from my short period of experience with the Sun system so far. :(
