Memory failures on Ex000 servers with 256 DIMMS and OBP_3.2.30,POST_3.9

Hi,
In the past 6 months I have had problems with systems that have had memory upgrades using 256MB modules, although initially the upgrades have gone OK when a module goes faulty you get random CPU panics and the system will crash to the OK prompt or a system reset, at no point does any useful information get posted in the messages file nor does the bank get deconfigured, also if you run extend post diags the memory passes all tests OK.
Any suggestions welcome.
Eddie

Eddie,
Please run the following two Solaris commands and paste the results back here.
# cat /etc/release
# uname -a
If there is a lack of information in MESSAGES, then there's a chance you may not
have a sufficient Solaris patch level.
The output of the two commands will guide us all a little bit better.

  • 2 Hyper-V Servers with Failover Cluster and a single File Server and .VHDs stored on a SMB 3 Share

    I have 2 X M600 Dell Blades (100 GB local storage and 2 NICs)  and a Single R720 File Server (2.5 TB local SAS storage and 6 NICs).  I´m planning a Lab/developer enrironment using 2 Hyper-V Servers with Failover Cluster and a single File Server putting
    all  .VHDs stored on a SMB 3 Share on the File Server.
    The ideia is to have a HA solution, live migration, etc, storing the .VHDs onm a SMB 3 share
    \\fileserver\shareforVHDs
    It is possible? How Cluster will understand the
    \\fileserver\shareforVHDs as a cluster disk and offer HA on it?
    Or i´ll have to "re-think" and forget about VHDs on SMb 3 Share and deploy using iSCSI?
    Storage Spaces makes difference in this case?

    You can do what you want to do just fine. Hyper-V / Windows Server 2012 R2 can use SMB 3.0 share instead of a block storage (iSCSI/FC/etc). See:
    Deploy Hyper-V over SMB
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj134187.aspx
    There would be no shared disk and no CSV just SMB 3.0 folder both hypervisor hosts would have access to. Much simplier to use. See:
    Hyper-V recommends SMB or CSV ?
    http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/d6e06d59-bef3-42ba-82f1-5043713b5552/hyperv-recommends-smb-or-csv-
    You'll have however a limited solution as your single physical server being a file server would be a single point of failure.
    You can use Storage Spaces just fine but you cannot use Clustered Storage Spaces as in this case you'll have to take away your SAS spindles from your R720 box and mount them into SAS JBOD (make sure it's certified). So you get rid of an active components
    (CPU, RAM) and keep more robust all-passive SAS JBOD as your physical shared storage. Better then a single Windows-running server but for a true fault tolerance you'll have to have 3 SAS JBODs. Not exactly cheap :) See:

    Alternative way would be using Virtual SAN similar to VMware VSAN in this case you can get rid of a physical shared storage @ all and use cheap high capacity SATA spindles (and SATA SSDs!) instead of an expensive SAS.
    Hope this helped :)
    StarWind VSAN [Virtual SAN] clusters Hyper-V without SAS, Fibre Channel, SMB 3.0 or iSCSI, uses Ethernet to mirror internally mounted SATA disks between hosts.

    Hi I have just bought a new Mac Book Pro 15" Retina display with 256 SSD and 8G RAM. I had my info transferred form my Previous Mac Book Pro late 2011 to this machine. When trying to download Mavericks it says it cannot be loaded onto this machine? Strange as I have just downloaded Pages, Numbers and Keynote...free? Thanks and Regards
    Brian

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    You already have got OS X Mavericks installed (the Keynote, Pages and Numbers versions available in the Mac App Store are only compatible with OS X Mavericks).
    You have got a Late 2013 MacBook Pro, which uses a special OS X Mavericks version that is not available in the Mac App Store. This is the reason why the Mac App Store is not compatible with OS X Mavericks even if you are using it. This will be fixed in OS X 10.9.1, when your Mac uses the same Mavericks version as all other Macs.
    Until then, you can reinstall OS X through OS X Recovery > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4718

  • Combine tables from 2 SQL servers with different Schemas and update as new data is entered

     I have 2 SQL server 2000 machines, I need to take a table from each one and combine them together based on a date time stamp.  The first machine has a database that records information based on an event it is given a timestamp the value of variable is stored and a few other fields are stored in Table A.  The second machine Table B has test data entered in a lab scenario.  This is a manufacturing facility so the Table A data is recorded by means of a third party software.  Whenever a sample is taken in the plant the event for Table A is triggered and recorded in the table.  The test data may be entered on that sample in Table B several hours later the lab technician records the time that the sample was taken in Table B but it is not exact to match with the timestamp in Table A.  I need to combine each of these tables into a new SQL server 2005 database on a new machine.  After combining the tables which I am assuming I can based on a query that looks at the timestamp on both Tables A & B and match the rows up based on the closest timestamp. I need to continuously update these tables with the new data as it comes in.  I havent worked with SQL for a couple of years and have looked at several ways to complete this task but havent had much luck.  I have researched linked servers, SSIS, etc Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Hi Catalyst,
    Welcome to the MSDN Forums!
    I would have a concern with respect to your issue.  If there is no way to identify a sample, save for the closest timestamp on table A - what would happen if two samples were taken in the plant, and the test results were entered in reverse order?  The samples would not tie back to the appropriate measurements.  Can't you get an identifier of some sort to tie that sample back to table A?
    If you can't, something like this should work, but I'm not sure how you'll "serialize" the samples to avoid the situation above.
    Code Snippet
    --Create sample data
    DECLARE @TableA TABLE ( SampleNo int NOT NULL,
    SampleTime datetime);
    DECLARE @TableB TABLE ( SampleTakenTime datetime,
    SampleColour varchar(50),
    SampleQuality char(1),
    SampleResultNo int);
    INSERT @TableA SELECT 1, GETDATE()
    WAITFOR DELAY '00:00:10';
    INSERT @TableB SELECT GETDATE(), 'Orange', 'A', '5'
    WAITFOR DELAY '00:00:20';
    INSERT @TableB SELECT GETDATE(), 'Purple', 'D', '7'
    WAITFOR DELAY '00:00:10';
    INSERT @TableA SELECT 2, GETDATE()
    --Actual Query begins now
    SELECT *
    FROM @TableA AS a
    JOIN @TableB AS b ON ABS(DATEDIFF(millisecond,a.SampleTime,b.SampleTakenTime)) = (SELECT MIN(ABS(DATEDIFF(millisecond,ta.SampleTime,tb.SampleTakenTime)) )
    FROM @TableB tb
    JOIN @TableA ta ON a.SampleNo = ta.SampleNo)
    Now, to account for the fact that you are querying data from a different server, you need to create a linked server (see sp_addlinkedserver and sp_addlinkedsrvlogin) and then use the fully qualified name (server.database.schema.table) to reference the table.
    Hope this helps,
    Aaron

  • New imac with 256 ssd and 1TB HD want OS leopard and lion.

    I want my new imac to be able to boot into leopard or lion.  Should I partition the SSD or install the second OS on the second HD (1TB HD).  I have plenty of room on both since I don't tend to store much on the HDs.
    I haven't received the imac yet so I'm not sure if it will come preloaded with Lion.

    Well, if it comes with Lion preinstalled, then you will most likely not be able to boot into Snow Leopard. The point is that no Mac can boot an OS older than what it came with: notable exceptions would be Macs that are manufactured right around the time of a new OS release; in those cases, it may or may not be possible. It would depend on the machine and OS builds - you would have to ask Apple if it would be possible in your case.
    If you ordered a refurb from the Apple store, then when was it manufactured? And, they do show which OS is loaded on that page.

  • Sun Fire V490 x 2 servers with Oracle RAC facing Split brain problem

    Hi all,
    I have Sun Fire V490 x 2 servers with Oracle RAC and they faced a Split brain problem. One of the node's database instance has gone down, The DBA claims it is due to network problem, but as such the networks are OK. We use the on board CE1 interface for Cluster interconnect and CE0 as the public interface.
    Did anybody face this kind of a problem? Could this be a hardware/OS patch problem?
    I had kept a continuous ping for 24 hours after this happened last time and the output shows no packet loss
    Many thanks in advance.

    In order to diagnose this properly, you'll need to provide too much detail and far too many log files for a generic discussion forum to handle.
    Use your service contract and open a support case.
    Because a cluster environment is involved you'll likely end up talking to the cluster support staff.
    They can analyze hardware and software errors as well as review whether you configured the systems in a supportable fashion.
    Be prepared to make a direct connection to each system and gather data using such as by using the Explorer tool. The technical support staff will tell you what they will actually need.

  • HT1651 Can i use Samsung 2GB PC-8500 DDR3 1066MHz SO-DIMM 204 Pin 2.0GB Memory Upgrade Modules M471B5673FH0-CF8 with my mac bool mid 2010?

    Can i use Samsung 2GB PC-8500 DDR3 1066MHz SO-DIMM 204 Pin 2.0GB Memory Upgrade Modules M471B5673FH0-CF8 with my mac bool mid 2010?

    you are out of luck, I think.
    Not using the exact spec for memory wil cause trouble.
    When you have the original in (1066MHz) and add another with higher speed (1333) there is a (small) chance that the higher speed one is "clocked down" and will work, but expect kernel panics often. Most of the time it will not work.
    If there is no standard spec ram in at all, the mac will not start.
    Luckily ram is cheap nowadays. Send it back.
    The best way to buy is researching the Manufacturers' site and use the configurator, then go shopping, if you want.
    Use only respected brands: Crucial, OWC, personally have not so good experience with some other brands. And remember "pennywise is poundfoulish".
    I think Amazon will take it back and refund. Very unlikely that the memory is harmed. Ask them to take it back.

  • Physical Memory failure (DUMP)

    I use SIS 648FX Chipset Based 648F NEO Series
    using Pentium 4 HT 2.8 GHz processor
    i already use Kingston 512 MB DDR 400 MHz PC3200 DIMM 3-3-3 for 3 months already. Yesterday I bought  1 more of Kingston 512 MB DDR 400 MHz PC3200 DIMM 3-3-3 to upgrade the RAM Memory
    It doesn't work, computer doesn't even start. Before that my computer has 256 MB 266 Mhz memory module. It's strange, but if i reset CMOS settings with help of changing jumper position, the system starts.
    If I use only one dimm than the computer can start.
    I try both of the dimm. Both can start.
    But when I use 2 dimm of Kingston 512 MB DDR 400 MHz PC3200 DIMM 3-3-3, the computer doesn't start.

    I had that experience.
    First I tried boot with 1 DDR and Enable 'DRAM Timing by SPD' in CMOS setting.
    And then I boot with both DDR. It solved my problem.
    Then I tried to tweak DRAM Timing again.

  • Memory Master - 2-Pack 1GB PC2-5300 DIMM Laptop Memory Kit

    Hi,
    I would like to purchase "Memory Master - 2-Pack 1GB PC2-5300 DIMM Laptop Memory Kit".
    Everything looks perfect however it's missing the "SO"
    I only see "PC2-5300 in the image of the package.
    Is this a typo?
    In searching I find no "DIMM" for laptop. They are all "SODIMM".
    I understand "DIMM" to be about twice the length of "SODIMM".
    Thanks in advance.

    I wonder why there is only one bank with 512mb and two banks with 2gb. Is each slot a bank? There are only 2 memory slots.
    It does seem to have much less disk activity and respond quicker however I have to return this and get my own memory. Each 1gb memory card is Black Diamond Series certified memory M533DN-1024BD10.

  • Pure craziness: W530 will post with a DIMM in slot 1 **or** 3, but not both.

    I've been going nuts here, so I apologize in advance if this email sounds a litted harried.
    I have two identical W530s in front of me. Both of them are i7-3820QM and are intended to support up to 32GB of RAM. So I went and ordered 32GB of RAM from Crucial and it showed up this afternoon. I promptly installed it all in machine A because I was in the middle of doing some work on machine B. Everything was fine with machine A.
    After I finished my work on machine B I decided to move the four DIMMs over there for various reasons; machine B will be there final destination. I stuck them in, making sure to seat them nicely. The machine refused to post. I pulled a couple out. The machine refused to post. I put them back in machine A. Machine A posted. Something fishy was up with machine B.
    To make a long story short, read the title of this message. This is seriously one of the weirdest things I have ever encountered with a piece of hardware. If you have all four DIMMs installed, the machine does not post. If you remove **only** DIMM 1, the machine posts. If you remove **only** DIMM 3, the machine posts. Slots 2 and 4 work just fine; whether they are empty or full or partially full doesn't effect a **bleep** thing. I've also tried this with 4GB DIMMs instead of 8GB DIMMS; same deal.
    Just to be ridiculously clear, here are he configurations that work and those that don't. "x" means that slot is empty.
    x x x x - fails, beeps (obviously)
    x x x 4 - works
    x x 3 x - works
    x x 3 4 - works
    x 2 x x - works
    x 2 x 4 - works
    x 2 3 x - works
    x 2 3 4 - works
    1 x x x - works
    1 x x 4 - works
    1 x 3 x - fails silently
    1 x 3 4 - fails silently
    1 2 x x - works
    1 2 x 4 - works
    1 2 3 x - fails silently
    1 2 3 4 - fails silently
    **bleep** is going on here? The BIOS isn't even giving error beeps in the failure modes. If I'm somehow being a total moron, please let me know; that is so much more satisfying than the idea of a machine that can't use all its RAM slots because of some weird hardware bug.
    Thanks!

    OK, so you've contacted service for repair on this system? I think that you've exhausted all user actions to correct.

  • Z68A-GD55 G3 -- how do you get it to boot with 4 DIMMs installed?

    Howdy folks,
    I am really hoping that someone here can enlighten me on this magical BIOS setting that allows you to boot this unit up with all 4 DIMM slots populated?  I have scoured the dark corners of the interwebz trying to figure this out and it completely eludes me, I even read the manual cover to cover... all I can find is a couple posts where people have updated the bios or went into the bios and changed a setting allowing them to escape the reboot loop that I get with all four memory slots filled.... the unit boots just fine with two DIMMs installed and it doesn't matter which two... I found this on a post but nothing else:
       "One more thing, it wouldn't boot with four RAM-sticks out of the box, but it worked fine to start with only 2 RAM-sticks and use F1 to change bios-settings. After doing it that it had no problem with 4 RAM-sticks."
    Take from: Google search "Z68A-GD55 megathread" since I can't post external links, the author of the article is "the Squonk"
    Any one encounter this before?
    Thanks in advance,

  • Problem on connect to two servers with SSL

    Hey all!
    I've got a problem with connecting to two different servers via SSL in one Application. Every Connection works fine on its one via SSL.
    But if i try to initialize a new connection it fails every time.
    My thought is that the problem is the DriverManager. I'm not quite sure how this DriverManager works, but what i know is that it's a single-ton Class and with that maybe stores some parameters from the first connection which didn't get reloaded when trying to make a new connection.
    Here's the way i create the connection ..
        String host="best.host.ever";
        int port="3306";
        String MYSQL_URL="jdbc:mysql://"+this.host+":"+this.port+"/";
        DBName="db_foobar";
        sqlProps = new Properties();
        sqlProps.setProperty("user","foo");
        sqlProps.setProperty("password","bar");
        sqlProps.setProperty("zeroDateTimeBehavior","convertToNull");
        sqlProps.setProperty("useSSL","true");
        System.setProperty("javax.net.ssl.trustStore", trustStore);
        System.setProperty("javax.net.ssl.trustStorePassword", "trustpass");
        System.setProperty("javax.net.ssl.keyStore", keyStore);
        System.setProperty("javax.net.ssl.keyStorePassword", "keypass");
        System.setProperty("javax.net.debug","ssl");
        printDebug("[Konstruktor] : Connecting to "+MYSQL_URL);
        try {
             Class.forName("org.gjt.mm.mysql.Driver").newInstance();
             this.conn = DriverManager.getConnection(MYSQL_URL+DBName,sqlProps);     
            connectionCount++;
            initOK=true;
        //Catch stuff following...Is it possible that the System.properties i'm setting are only readed one time by the DriverManager (if it's readed by the DriverManager at all)?
    So when i initialize a new Object with different System.properties they may not get used again.
    Hopefully somebody has an explanation or a solution for this.
    Besides: If i launch the programm twice it's no problem to have to differen SSL connections at the same time.
    Thanks for reading and in advance for trying to help!

    Yep, it's the standard authentication failure message. (The error code is 1045).
    The Exception which is thrown is a SQLException with the message:
    Access denied for user 'username'@'p54BB743D.dip.t-dialin.net' (using password: YES)
    errorcode: 1045
    The code i'm using runs well with one connection and even with multiple connections as long as not more than one connection are using SSL.
    To explain:
    The user has the possibility to run the application with a user defined data-source (the connection). You can add a new connection and the application will then add a tabbed pane with the same gui but uses the other data source then.
    This runs fine with multiple connections (I managed to work on 3 differen intranet servers and 2 different servers online, one of them using SSL)
    So all together 5 Connections. Now i wanted to add a 6th server with SSL two and thats the point where it crashes. (Both SSL Servers run perfect on their own with my application - only both together doesnt work).
    About that: Class.forName, yes i'm using it every time when i make a new Connection. This is wrong? Could you explain why?

  • Should i take Macbook air 13' with 128GB and upgrade to 8Gb or just take Macbook ait 13' with 256 GB?

    I'm a graphic student in university. Now i don't know i should pick Macbook air 13' with 128GB and upgrade to 8Gb or just take Macbook ait 13' with 256 GB?
    I worry  Macbook air 13' with 128GB can't support fully to install those graphic software like photoshop, lightroom, illustration , Adobe and so on..
    Thank you.

    If I had to choose just one thing I’d go with 8GB RAM. There’s no way to upgrade memory later so if you buy the stock 4GB RAM model and need more RAM later your only choice is to buy a new computer. Even if you find the 128GB SSD too small later you have alternatives including moving less important files to an external hard drive (music, old projects, and video are good examples). You can also purchase a SD RAM card for the SD slot to store additional files on - I have a flush mount 128GB SD card in mine which is where I store my music and older files. And while it will be expensive you can be fairly certain that eventually an upgrade SSD will become available.
    If possible I’d recommend both the 8GB RAM upgrade and the 256GB SSD but as I said, the RAM upgrade really is a must. BTW, I have a huge amount of software on my computer: Creative Suite, Office, and tons more and have no trouble keeping it all within 128GB. What did push me over to make the larger drive a must have is that I also need to run Windows so I have 45GB tied up in Windows and Windows software. (I’m a programming instructor and need to test my assignments for Win and Mac users.)
