Hi,

I have just upgraded my home PC (2x933MHz PIII CPUs, 1GB RAM, Matrox G450
graphics card) to Solaris 10 and now every time I boot the machine, I get
the following message:

WARNING: Loading Moab microcode length=135

What does it mean?

Also, there was a (once only) message

WARNING: elfcore: core dump failed for process 455; address space is changing

when I first rebooted into Solaris 10 and the sorry attempt of core file in
/ was only 52 bytes longs and, of course, without any useful
information. Is that one related to my Oracle installation?

TIA and bye, Dragan

You have an old broken iprb interface which hangs under heavy DMA load;
fortunately, we have a microcode patch compiled into Solaris and
this is enabled. The message should be removed from the driver.

This happens when you run a program and you copy another executable
on top of it.

Use coreadm, switch on logging, and the message should indicate what
program core dumped.

Thanks Casper. Good to know. Never had a problem with that iprb before (was
running Solaris on it since Solaris 8).

Bye, Dragan
