18486   Memory ECC error reporting on Starfire still not enabled by default   14 Apr 1999

Description Top

Bug 4045242 indicates that the /etc/system variable report_ce_console is set by

default in Solaris 2.6.

On the Starfire sun4u1 kernel this is not the case; on a 2.6 5/98 Starfire 
domain:-

# adb -k
physmem 7cfbf
report_ce_console/X
report_ce_console:
report_ce_console:              0

So, we need to have the entry

set report_ce_console=1 

entered into /etc/system to get memory ECC errors reported to the console and
/var/adm/messages.

(Note: the variable report_ce_log is no longer defined).
