Summary: System crashing in loop



I waited a few of days to make sure my problem is
resolved, and it appears to be so.

Special thanks to David Cecchino, who suggested I check my
OBP firmware version. It was indeed a bit old, and
apparently something in Solaris 10 would crash with the
older firmware.

Thanks also to everyone else that responded.. I am very
happy to have my system back.

My Sunblade 100 has developed a problem. The machine seems
to be running normally, but will crash and end up in a state
that seems like an endless loop.

What I see on the screen after the crash, is what looks like
a bunch of garbage characters, then about thirty or forty
lines that say:

"ok Rejecting alloc-mem!"

The cycle then repeats.

The only way out of this loop, is to power off the system
and restart. It will run ok for awhile, and then go back
into this loop. I am now trying to determine the cause.

I've not found anything useful in the logs. Only normal
startup message from each time I've restarted the system.

Please respond with any suggestions, but I am going to
assume a hardware fault and try replacing some components
and restarting.

Thanks.
