Symptoms
Sun Fire X4450 boots hang after upgrade to BIOS 3B12.

A small number of Sun Fire X4450s are missing the Product Part Number in the FRU data. If the BIOS is upgraded to 3B12, the system will hang during boot. This has resulted in unnecessary replacement of system boards.

Resolution
Use BIOS 3B16 or later.

The latest BIOS and firmware is available for download from http://www.sun.com/servers/x64/x4450/downloads.jsp.

The Product Part Number can be can be found on the ELOM GUI interface. The System Information -> Versions -> Server Board Information tab contains this data.
