My original post is below.

Thanks to:
Dan Astoorian ,Jon Andrews, Kevin Boykin, Hindley Nick, Scott Howard,
Matthew Stier, Wout Mertens.

SUMMARY:
- powerfail-time=1030374812 means the seconds since the epoch (Jan 1
1970).
- /usr/platform/`uname -i`/sbin/prtdiag -v" will show you the time of
the
  last power failure in human readable format.
- use the perl expression perl -e 'print scalar localhost(1030374812);'.

I am still investigating the reason of continuous ^M reboot !

Thanks all.

Levi

Subject: OPB variable powerfail-time ?

Hi,
I have E4500 Server (Solaris 8 based). The server reboots itself many
times during the last month. There is nothing in the messages file/nor
prtdiag reports any errors. There is no crash dump created. The messages
file just contains ^M then the normal boot sequence.

We are suspecting that the reason is a power failure but not sure.

I found the value of the OPB variable powerfail-time=1030374812, but I
can't interpret what did the number means 1030374812 !

Any pointer ?

Any guru out there suffer from this after upgrading the E4500 server to
Solaris 8 ? Anything to do with the Ecache problem ?

IWS

Thanks

Levi
