▼ Temporarily Disable All Memory Modules

A disabled CMP node complicates the memory topology and can prevent a system
from booting. To run the system in a degraded state, you must reduce the total
amount of system memory by disabling all of the FB-DIMMs on all of the memory
modules in order to work around this complication.

If you are recovering from a failed CMP module, you must temporarily disable the
FB-DIMMS on all memory modules when Solaris is halted and the system is
powered off. The FB-DIMMs are re-enabled after the I/O and PCIe devices are
reconfigured.

You can either physically remove the memory modules from the system, or remotely
disable all FB-DIMMs located on all memory modules using the
disablecomponent

command.

To remove the memory modules from the system, see the instructions in the SPARC
Enterprise T5440 Server Service Manual
