Kashif, We just had a similar problem here and the ultimate solution after bang our head against the wall for awhile was to buy a complete refurbished D box from a third party vendor. Once here the hard drive need to be repartitioned and the backup tape loaded. We spent about 4 weeks trying to fix the D box with out any success. The error message about the fast Data access MMU was when we gave up and bought the entire unit. It was quite surprising how cost effective it was fro a third party vendor.

It is not coming up and dies while rebooting. If anyone has any idea about it!!!

Invensys first swapped memory, but this didn't solve the problem. We got a replacement D box, which we payed for. I haven't heard from them if they have swapped the motherboard on our box in the meantime. We swapped the disk, both videocards and the network cards. Back online in +/- 60 minutes. If you have a maint contr no problem, if not you're probably facing a considerable cost.=3D20 Rgds, Dirk -----Original Message----- From: foxboro-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:foxboro-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Kashif Ijaz Sent: donderdag 12 juli 2007 14:12 To: foxboro@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [foxboro] FW: FW: AW51D Problem Can it be that 64 MB memory on the box running two display manager sessions runs out of memory and that makes it crash.

The vmstat 10 10 gives me around 88% idle time on nearly all attempts. When the display freezes, mouse does not move and you can do absolutely =3D3D no action. Also the last screen with the last values of process parameters =3D3D is frozen. Only resolution is to the turn the power to the box off and then =3D3D on. We are using version 4.3 of I/A. Also there is no weight on the boxes.

If this has happened recently, take a look in the output of the dmesg command or in the /var/adm/messages* files and see what the whole panic string is. Alternatively, go to /opt/crash/{letterbug} and do "strings * | grep panic" and see what the panic strings have been. There were some CPU issues with Ultrasparc-II CPUs - you may be seeing cache or writeback data parity issues - these are CPU related. Other panic strings may point to memory problems. 64mb of ram seems small for an AW51D - can you email a copy of the output of vmstat 10 10 in your reply? Your problem with the display freezing is likely a different issue. Many users have had an issue with the alarm manager causing the screen to stop taking mouse/kbd input. If the mouse moves but can't click anything, try to log in remotely and kill the alarm manager task. If the screen un-freezes then you know that's the issue. The alarm manager will restart the next time the alarm button is selected. There have been a number of Foxboro Helpful Hints and QFs that reduce the incidence of this problem but I don't know if it is completely resolved. What I/A version are you at? I've seen frequent other problems with the 51D series workstations - they seem to be significantly less sturdy than the other boxes in the 51A-51E range. I've had significantly more power supply, cpu and card failures in these boxes. If the boxes are being used on a desktop, ensure that they are not supporting a heavy monitor. Enough weight on the top of the case when used horizontally can cause the box to panic or shut down.
