One of our rp5470 servers halts randomly between 1-3 weeks. Nothing on syslog, nothing on /var/adm/crash (maybe because RAM=6G and /var has only 2.5G free space available.). Only clue that might help, is tombstone. Last tombstone included.
Solved! Go to Solution.

SolutionIf you have a LAN cable connected to the GSP, logon to the GSP, type the Ctrl-E - c - f keystroke and press Ctrl-B to access the GSP.
If you're using the local serial console, just press Ctrl-B.
There are various GSP commands that might be useful in this case:
- PS (Power Status) can be used to verify that all your system's PSUs and fans are OK.
- SL displays hardware-level error logs, one message at a time. Type SL, then E for Error log, press Enter for no filtering and then view the messages one at a time.
- CL displays the console log, i.e. what has been sent to the console terminal in recent past. It's most useful when viewed immediately after the crash/reboot: if the kernel displayed a panic message, you can review it. Note that the console log is a ring buffer: when new data is added by any actions on the system console, the oldest data is thrown away.

Re: rp5470 random halts
Last entries on GSP Error log are included. Looks like there were some problems with DC power, though the system was up & running at least couple of hours after 16:17:29 when that DC error was logged.
In fact the system didn't halt (cleanly) as I told on initial post. It just fell down so fast that it couldn't wrote anything to syslog etc. As Mits thought, it might have been just DC power shut down. So next job is to identify faulty part...

Re: rp5470 random halts
Here's another one, the UPS is running fine. The cable between the UPS and the server doesn't run so hot. When the serial connection drops, so does the power. (this one was from the early 1990's).
Third one. The UPS and server are fine. I plug in a laptop into the UPS with a serial cord. The UPS doesn't like the serial cord you use. It powers off and takes the server with it. (this happened to me 3 months ago....ow).

Re: rp5470 random halts
There are a lot of places to look at when you have a panic. Tombstones is only one place and its there for recording HPMCs which is a CPU related problem. You don't have any HPMCs.
/etc/shutdownlog will give you an idea of whether or not the panic was O/S or HW related. So paste the last lines of this file for evaluation.
GSP error logs can be the most valuable. Another responder has already gone over this. This is usually where most admins start. Your looking for ALERT levels, i.e., ALERT LEVEL 10, 12, etc. Get this data.
There are also the /etc/opt/esmon logs. You should check these as well. Persistence, register, etc. There's a half a dozen that you should cross reference by time stamp of panic.
