Power On Commands

STOP bypasses POST. STOP-A aborts POST.
STOP-D forces a diagnostic power on. The NVRAM Parameter diag-switch? is set to true.
Not supported by USB Keyboards.
STOP-F forces input and output to ttya. Input from the Keyboard is disabled except for L1-A.
Not supported by USB Keyboards.
STOP-N forces a set-defaults of the NVRAM.
Not supported by USB Keyboards.
With Sun Blade 1000/2000, power on and wait for the power button LED
to blink and the speaker to beep, then quickly depress the power button twice.

Psycho UPA Ports 4, 6, and 1f

ok setenv upa-port-skip-list 3,1d (Skip CPU3 and FFB1)
The pci0-probe-list NVRAM variable is used to control the probe order for onboard PCI devices (/pci@1f,4000). The probe order for PCI devices plugged into the backpanel slots cannot be controlled. Devices omitted from the pci0-probe-list are not probed.

Devices in the pci0-probe-list are:

2 = scsi (rma backplane & external connector)
3 = scsi (4 disk backplane)
4 = Empty slot - Back panel slot 10

ok setenv pci0-probe-list 3,2,4 (Probe in order 3-2-4)
Due to internal PCI changes introduced in OBP 3.12, the Cheerio node is pseudo-probed and device 1 must always be included in the pci0-probe-list. Prior to OBP 3.12, an entry for device 1 was not required. The default probe order for OBP 3.12 is 1-3-2-4.

Devices in the OBP 3.12 pci0-probe-list are:

1 = Cheerio (flash, nvram, superio, serial, audio, and I2C)
2 = SCSI (rma backplane & external connector)
3 = SCSI (4 disk backplane)
4 = PCI Slot 10

ok setenv pci0-probe-list 1,3,2,4 (Probe in order 1-3-2-4)
The pci-slot-skip-list NVRAM variable is used to skip probing of PCI devices plugged into the backpanel slots. If slot 10 is in the pci-slot-skip-list, it will be skipped even if device 4 is included in the pci0-probe-list.
ok setenv pci-slot-skip-list 4,6 (Skip slot 4 and 6)
The memory-interleave NVRAM variable controls how OBP sets memory interleaving. If interleaving is enabled with mixed memory bank sizes, the smaller memory size is used and POST displays a smaller memory value than is physically installed.
ok setenv memory-interleave max-size
Setting Description
auto (default) OBP chooses best setting
max-size Configure for maximum available memory space
max-interleave Configure for maximum memory bandwidth (high
interleaving values) at the expense of memory size
 1 Use 1-way interleaving
 2 Use 2-way interleaving
 4 Use 4-way interleaving

The env-monitor NVRAM variable determines how OBP responds to environmental monitoring via the I2C serial bus.

ok setenv env-monitor advise
Setting Description
enabled (default) Issue a warning and shut down the system in 15 seconds
if an unsafe condition is detected
advise Issue a warning if an unsafe condition is detected
disabled Do not monitor for unsafe conditions

The .post command displays the results of the Power On Self Test.

ok .post

The diag-trigger NVRAM variable is used to control which resets will automatically enable POST when diag-switch? is true.
ok setenv diag-trigger power-reset
Run diagnostics on power-on resets.
ok setenv diag-trigger error-reset
Run diagnostics on power-on resets, fatal hardware errors, and watchdog resets.
ok setenv diag-trigger soft-reset
Run diagnostics on all resets (except XIR) including UNIX init 6 or reboot
