Would you be able to share the XCP firmware that you have for M3000? I was
unable to obtain updated firmware from Oracle,

I wanted to post an update to you guys, I had an Oracle tech today SSH into
my XSCF and clear the fault code. He took serial number off my server and
generated a service password and his end and then pasted it into the
console, so this means that every service password is different plus they
expire after 48 hours if I'm not mistaken. My M3000 is back up and running
again! If any of you is thinking of reviving your M3000, you might try
doing what I did. It is a bit of hassle but it might be worth it for some
of you. I myself have M3000, 32GB of RAM, the XVR3000 graphics card, 2x SAS
HDDs, Sun type6 keyboard, Sun mouse, and top of the line CRT monitor from
2000s. I can basically use it as desktop, running Solaris with X11. I have
replaced the 2 super loud intake fans with typical 80mm desktop fans and
built a small circuit with 555 IC that generates just the PWM signal to
fool the server that fans are running at high speed when indeed they're
running quiet. Also did same for PSU, the 555 circuit fitted inside of it
nicely.

I still haven't figured whether Linux supports SPARC64 VII CPU? Anyone
knows? I have asked about and posted logs here:
