I am in charge of a small network of Sun machines. We have one Sun-3 which seems to be giving us problems. It is a Sun-3/60 with 60 meg tape and 300+ meg Sun Shoebox with the long 10 foot cable. The error looks something like: DVMA = 0, context = 2, virtual ad = dd5a294 pme = 92000562, phy.add ac4294 panic: unknown memory error sync file system 10 10,8,5,1 done dump to upf1a16b4, offset 27542 memory ERROR! Status D4, DVMA -Bit 1, Context 0, Vaddr: ffde294, Paddr 00000294, type 0 at 0x0fef4020 I wrote the error down before it rebooted, most of it should be correct. Can a long or bad SCSI cable cause this? The motherboard has been replaced by Sun, and the memory was tested in another Sun-3 which reported no errors. HELP!! By the way the machine is running Sun OS 4.1 and has 12megs of ram. later Barry Comer 870646c@aucs.UUCP
