Dear Expert ,

We have new ultra 45 with preloaded Solaris 10 11/06 s10s_u3wos_10 SPARC , after around 40 minute running suddenly the workstation shutdown Automatically. We already setup dtpower to disable mode , but the workstation still shutdown Automatically , does anyone know how to solve this issue ?.


Thanks

I don't know anything about solaris, but my first guess would be that the machine is overheating. Does it boot up right away afterwards? Sometimes when a machine overheats it will boot back up and run for a few minutes. And if it does, does it shutdown suddenly soon again?

HI expert ,

Thanks , there no error log or hardware error , but since change the new UPS , the workstation more stable . FYI we not setup ups software inside ultra 45 ,is it possible the ups problem can trigger the workstation for shutdown ?


Thanks

It could, but there would probably be lights flashing on the ups and it would probably make a beep noise. Check the owners manual for instructions on how to test the ups.
