Hi all,

I recently installed solaris 9 onto my Netra 105 box. For the likes off me I can't figure out why the on/standby switch simply does not work since reinstalling.  No matter what method I use, the box simply will not go into standby mode.

 

I have tried powering the box down with the switch. I have tried executing the poweroff  command in Solaris as well as shutdown –I 15 –g 0 –y . I have tried the power-off command at the PROM (ok) prompt. I have also tried placing the box into standby mode whilst in LOM mode by executing the poweroff command there. None off these methods work. The box just continually hums away L.

I know this seems like I relatively dumb problem.  And though I am new to Solaris, I am moderately ok with Red Hat. I’ve asked a few friends who are reasonably fluent with Sparc boxes & they have no idea what is the cause off this problem is either. I don’t believe it to be hardware related because prior to doing an initial install off solaris 9 from Solaris 8, Standby worked like it should.

  I suspect that the possible source off the problem is the lack off the LOM package that is supplied on the Solaris 9 supplement CD.  Unfortunately I do not have the supplement cd to either confirm or deny this being the problem.  

 

Any help with this would be very much appreciated.

 

Thanks in advance.
