Problem ce0: fault cleared external to device

807557May 13 2009 — edited May 13 2009
Hi all!

I have a problem with network. My server is Sun Sparc V890, and the network interface is ce0
$ ifconfig -a
lo0: flags=2001000849<UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING,MULTICAST,IPv4,VIRTUAL> mtu 8232 index 1
        inet 127.0.0.1 netmask ff000000
ce0: flags=1000843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,MULTICAST,IPv4> mtu 1500 index 2
        inet 190.10.10.66 netmask ffff0000 broadcast 190.10.255.255
eri0: flags=1000803<UP,BROADCAST,MULTICAST,IPv4> mtu 1500 index 3
        inet 192.168.128.200 netmask ffffff00 broadcast 192.168.128.255
The [eri0] is interface to connect to storage, the ce0 is primary.

Just few hours ago, I cannot contact with my server, traced in /var/adm/messages, I found
