Troubleshooting Server Power StatesEach time a server module powers on in a Sun Blade 6000 modular system, it queries the CMMto ensure that there is enough power available rom the power supply units (PSUs) to power onthe server. I there is not enough power to power on the server module, the CMM denies theservermodule rom receiving power (both standby andmain). I this situationoccurs, theOK/Power LED on the ront panel o the server module will remain o . To troubleshoot thispower issue, ollow these guidelines: ReviewtheILOM event log messages to determinewhether the servermodulehas

permission to power on. An event message is recorded in the log any time there isinadequate amounto power available rom thechassis PSUs to power on a server module.

CMM and NodeILOM OverviewYour server supports Oracle's Integrated LightsOut Manager (ILOM) version 3.0 or later.ILOMallows you to manage both compute nodes o the Sun Blade X6275 M2 server module.This can be done using either the chassis CMM ILOM, or the server module node's ILOMservice processor.

The ollowing topics describe CMMand node ILOM:

About CMMILOM

The SunBlade 6000 modular systemchassis has itsownservice processor, calleda ChassisMonitoring Module (CMM).CMMILOM provides an Ethernet connection through thechassisto the service processor in each node o the server module.

The minimum CMMILOM rmware version must be 3.0.10.15 (available with Sun Blade 6000modular system so tware release 3.2) to support theSunBlade X6275 M2 servermodule.

CMM ILOM so tware allows youto monitor andmanage allo thechassis components,including installedserverand storage blades.

Check tosee i DHCP isalready confgured or the server module node SP byentering thecommand:

show /CH/BL0/NODE0/SP/network

where BL0/NODE0 represents the chassis blade slot 0, server module node 0. I DHCP is already con gured, you see ipdiscovery = dhcp and pendingipdiscovery = dhcp .

To confgure theSP to useDHCP, enter the ollowingcommands:-> cd /CH/BL0/NODE0/SP/network-> set pendingipdiscovery=dhcp-> set commitpending=true

Repeat Steps 3 and 4 toconfgurethe server'sother node.

For example, i youhave already con gured NODE0, you would then enter the commands tocon gure NODE1.

To log out o CMM ILOM, enter the command:

-> exit

Flash ModulesThe Sun Blade X6275 M2 server module supports one Sun Flash Module (FMod) per node. TheFMod is seen by the node as a local SATA disk drive and is controlled by the built-in ICH10 disk controller. It canbe used to install andboot a supported operatingsystem.

For in ormation about howto install ash modules, re er to the Sun Blade X6275 M2 Server ModuleService Manual .

Caution Do not remove or insert a ash module until the green FMod power LED on themotherboard goes out. This LED (next to the FMod slots) indicates that there is power to theFMod rom the energy storage module (ESM). Damage to the ash module can occur i theFMod is removed while the green FMod power LED is lit. It can take 20 seconds or more or theESM todischarge and the LED togo out.

USB Flash DriveThe Sun Blade X6275 M2 server module has one internal USB port per node on themotherboard at the back o the server module. You must remove the server module rom thechassis to access theUSBports.

When a USB ashdrive ispresent, itappears asa local diskdevice. It is alsopossible to set it asaboot device or the node.

A USB ash drive with a standard USB 2.0 inter ace can be obtained rom third-party sourcesbut must meet thephysical requirements speci ed in the illustration below.

Caution The USB ash drive mustbe no larger than 2.7 mmwide and 32.0 mmlong. Physically larger ash driveswill inter erewith installing theblade into thechassis.
