Patch 111292-10 WITHDRAWN; May Cause Sun Blade 1000/2000, Sun Fire 280R and Netra 20 (T4) Platforms to Hang

---

Impact

Installing Open Boot PROM patch 111292-10 on the following platforms could result in a system hang during the next boot process following a sys-suspend (1M) operation. The system will be unuseable until power cycled.

Note: Patch 111292-10 has been WITHDRAWN and is no longer available from SunSolve.

Contributing Factors

This issue can occur in the following releases:

SPARC

• Solaris 8 with patch 111292-10 and without patch 111292-11
• Solaris 9 with patch 111292-10 and without patch 111292-11

on the following platforms:

• Sun Blade 1000
• Sun Blade 2000
• Sun Fire 280R
• Netra 20 (T4)

Notes: Upgrading an affected system to Open Boot PROM (OBP) version 4.6.0 (via patch 111292-10) will trigger this issue. To determine the system's current OBP version use the following Solaris commands:

	% /usr/sbin/prtconf -V
	or
	% /usr/platform/sun4u/sbin/prtdiag -v | grep OBP

The OBP version can also be determined by running the '.version' command from the "ok" prompt.

Symptoms

After a sys-suspend (1M) operation, the system will hang when the power is turned on and the system begins to boot. The "ok" prompt is visible, but the keyboard is non-responsive. The error message is as follows:

	Restoring system state, Please Wait...

        cpu_id 1, after stop-self!...
        cpu_id 1, after stop-self!...
        Illegal Instruction
        {1} ok

Workaround

If this issue occurs, the system should be power cycled and booted normally.

Resolution

This issue is addressed in the following releases:

SPARC

• Solaris 8 with patch 111292-11 or later
• Solaris 9 with patch 111292-11 or later

Note: Patch 111292-11 may be installed without removing patch 111292-10.
