M4000 jumpstart problem: no disks found



Hi,

We have two M4000 servers, and we want to install Solaris 10 08/07 on
them. On one server, we succeeded with no problems. But on the other,
Solaris does not find any disks:

Begin script install_begin execution completed.

ERROR: No disks found
- Check to make sure disks are cabled and powered up
Solaris installation program exited.
# format
Searching for disks...done
No disks found!

During the boot I could also see this:

WARNING: /pci@0,600000/pci@0/pci@8/pci@0/scsi@1 (mpt0):
mpt_ioc_enable_port failed
WARNING: /pci@0,600000/pci@0/pci@8/pci@0/scsi@1 (mpt0):
mpt chip initialization failed
WARNING: /pci@0,600000/pci@0/pci@8/pci@0/scsi@1 (mpt0):
attach failed

I could not find any information about this problem on SunSolve, and I
can't find any firmware updates for the machine. Hardware problem?

Bye,
