Solaris - Multi-cpu Test

Hello All,

 
Is there any kind of test written for Hobbit or in Hobbit

that monitors systems with Multiple Cpu's and determines

if a cpu board is out.

 
Example: We are utilizing Solaris Servers which have several

CPU's. Recently one of the CPU boards went out on a system

reducing the number of cpu's. However, no alerts from Hobbit.

 
I want to detect this. Does anyone know of a test?

 
Thanks..James

We use an old bb-cpu2.sh that tracks the CPU's on Solaris.

I was thinking of writing one myself. However, nothing shows

that some cpu's are down. I can do a psrinfo and a prtdiag

and it doesn't show the board that's out. I only know it's missing

cpu's because I can compare to a duplicate box.

 
ie..It doesn't show any off-line, they just don't' exist.

I believe a prtdiag -v should show the CPU states.

Found it. It shows the hardware device in prtdiag.

 
I was just looking for the CPU states in prtdiag,

which didn't show up. However, I can look at the

hardware device. 

 
Thanks for the prtdiag, I took a relook at it.

 
SB0        fault                 ON          amber

SB0        power                 OFF         green

SB0        ok_to_remove          ON          amber

SB0             failed

SB0/P0          disabled

SB0/P1          disabled

SB0/P2          disabled

SB0/P3          disabled

Try the  bb-prtdiag script  on  http://www.deadcat.net/
I know it detected  two failed power supplies on two different machines for me
Bet it will work for cpu s too.
