SUMMARY: RE: SunFire 280r: PS Device warnings

Sunmanagers,

Apologies for the delayed summary. A spell of 40 degree celsius weather and
some power restrictions delayed the insallation of the replacement power
supply.

The Power Supply has been replaced (under warranty) and we have had 72 hours
of PS1 error free bliss.

Thank-you to all who responded and in particular

whose diagnosis was spot-on. If any of you guys ever visit Perth, the 1st
"shout" is on me. I also appreciated the additional suggestions with regards
to modicications to the vfstab file  from joe fletcher and particularly Jay
Lessert

" When the system does crash fsck -F ufs /dev/rdsk/c1t0/d0/s0 is required to
 correct the / filesystem.

If the box is running Solaris 8 or Solaris 9, add the 'logging' option
to all ufs lines in /etc/vfstab, like this:

#device            device            mount   FS fsck  mount mount
#to mount          to fsck           point   type     pass  at boot  options
#
/dev/dsk/c0t1d0s0 /dev/rdsk/c0t1d0s0 /       ufs      1     no       logging
/dev/dsk/c0t1d0s3 /dev/rdsk/c0t1d0s3 /local  ufs      1     yes      logging
"
