Sun Blade X6440 Server Module Product Notes • November 2009
Workaround:
This issue can be resolved by following these steps:
1. Temporarily limit the memory to less than 4 GB.
This can be accomplished by physically removing RAM to reduce it to less than 4
GB.
Alternately, you can use a boot parameter to limit the memory that is used by
SLES. The boot parameter is mem=nnnn, where nnnn is equal to a number less
than 4000.
2. Install the latest kernel update to version 2.6.5-7.311 or newer.
After using the above method to limit the memory while the system is installed,
the kernel can be updated to provide the fixes so that the full amount of memory
can be used.
Information about this kernel update and how to download it is available at
.
