TABLE 4
Problem
The system does not
recognize external devices
that are hot-plugged into the
system IEEE 1394 connectors.
The system does not
recognize external devices
that are hot-plugged into the
system FC-AL connector.
Pressing the eject button on
the DVD-ROM drive does not
eject the media tray.
The system appears to be in
low-power mode, but the
power-indicator LED does not
blink.
Setup Troubleshooting the Sun Blade 1000
Solution
The buses for the connectors might be in low-power mode.
1) To activate the buses, start an application that the hot-plugged device
uses. For example, starting ShowMeTV activates the 1394 bus when the
application searches for cameras or other plugged-in devices.
2) Alternatively, you can set your Power Management software to the
Minimal setting to turn off power management to the buses. Refer to the
"Solaris User Collection" document, Using Power Management (see
"Hardware and Software Documentation" on page en-14).
The bus for the connector might be in low power mode.
1) To activate the bus, start an application that accesses the devices on the
bus. For example, accessing internal FC-AL disks will activate the FC-AL
bus.
2) Set your Power Management software to the Minimal setting to turn off
power management to the buses. Refer to the "Solaris User Collection"
document, Using Power Management (see "Hardware and Software
Documentation" on page en-14).
The drive might be in low-power mode.
1) To activate peripheral drives that are in low power mode, move the
mouse or press any key on the keyboard.
1) If your system has a tape drive* installed, the power-indicator LED will
not blink. Tape drives do not go into low-power mode. The power-
indicator LED only blinks when all system components are in low-power
mode.
*Some hardware options and software drivers do not support this system's
lowest possible power consumption mode, when this occurs, the power
indicator LED will not blink.
