The "bcme fails to attach" message is seen during the installation of Broadcom NetXtreme Gigabit Ethernet Driver (BRCMbcme) v10.4.5 or later for NC326i and NC325m Network Controllers on Solaris10 8/07, Solaris 10 5/08, and Solaris 10 10/08. • Workaround-For Solaris 10 8/07, follow these steps. 1. Remove the "bge" entries from the /etc/path_to_inst file. The bge entries should look similar to the following for NC326i "/pci@0, 0/pci8086, 65e2@2/pci1166, 103@0/pci103c, 703c@4" 0 "bge" "/pci@0, 0/pci8086, 65e2@2/pci1166, 103@0/pci103c, 703c@4, 1" 1 "bge" For NC325m: "/pci@0,0/pci8086,25e2@2/pci8086,3500@0/pci8086,3514@1/pci1166,103 @0/pci103c,703c@4" 0 "bge" "/pci@0,0/pci8086,25e3@3/pci111d,801c@0/pci111d,801c@0/pci1166,103 @0/pci103c,170c@4" 2 "bge" 2.

Repair the faulty devices using the fmadm command as follows : # fmadm repair The faulty_device_ids can be obtained from the step 3 above. The faulty PCI device ids should be similar to the following. For NC326i: "dev:///pci@0,0/pci8086,65e2@2/pci1166,103@0/pci103c,703c@4" "dev:/// pci@0,0/pci8086,65e2@2/pci1166,103@0/pci103c,703c@4,1" For NC325m: dev:////pci@0,0/pci8086,25e3@3/pci111d,801c@0/pci111d,801c@0/pci11 66,103@0/pci103c,170c@4,1 dev:////pci@0,0/pci8086,25e2@2/pci8086,3500@0/pci8086,3514@1/pci11 66,103@0/pci103c,703c@4 • Workaround- For Solaris 10 5/08 and 10/08, the chipset is supported with the native bge driver provided by the patch 140120-01. • Workaround- For Solaris 10 5/09, the chipset is supported with native bge driver.

bcme fails to attach
Broadcom gigabit Ethernet NIC fails to attach.
•
OS releases affected—Solaris 10 8/07, 5/08, 10/08
•
Servers affected—HP ProLiant BL685c, BL685c G5, BL680c, BL480c, BL260c G5
•
Description—The Broadcom NetXtreme Gigabit Ethernet Driver (BRCMbcme) v10.4.5 or later
successfully installs but fails to attach on a system with NC326i/NC325m (BCM5715S chipset)
NIC devices.
The “
bcme fails to attach
” message is seen during the installation of
Broadcom NetXtreme Gigabit Ethernet Driver (BRCMbcme) v10.4.5 or later for NC326i and
NC325m Network Controllers on Solaris10 8/07, Solaris 10 5/08, and Solaris 10 10/08.
•
Workaround—For Solaris 10 8/07, follow these steps.
1.
Remove the “
bge
” entries from the
/etc/path_to_inst
file.
The bge entries should look similar to the following for NC326i
"/pci@0, 0/pci8086, 65e2@2/pci1166, 103@0/pci103c, 703c@4" 0 "bge"
"/pci@0, 0/pci8086, 65e2@2/pci1166, 103@0/pci103c, 703c@4, 1" 1
"bge"
For NC325m:
"/pci@0,0/pci8086,25e2@2/pci8086,3500@0/pci8086,3514@1/pci1166,103
@0/pci103c,703c@4" 0 "bge"
"/pci@0,0/pci8086,25e3@3/pci111d,801c@0/pci111d,801c@0/pci1166,103
@0/pci103c,170c@4" 2 "bge"
2.
Reboot with “-- -r” option:
# reboot -- -r
3.
Run
fmadm faulty
(this will list the faulty/degraded devices)
# fmadm faulty
4.
Repair the faulty devices using the fmadm command as follows :
# fmadm repair <faulty_device_ids>
The faulty_device_ids can be obtained from the step 3 above.
The
faulty PCI device ids should be similar to the following.
For NC326i:
"dev:///pci@0,0/pci8086,65e2@2/pci1166,103@0/pci103c,703c@4"
"dev:/// pci@0,0/pci8086,65e2@2/pci1166,103@0/pci103c,703c@4,1"
For NC325m:
dev:////pci@0,0/pci8086,25e3@3/pci111d,801c@0/pci111d,801c@0/pci11
66,103@0/pci103c,170c@4,1
dev:////pci@0,0/pci8086,25e2@2/pci8086,3500@0/pci8086,3514@1/pci11
66,103@0/pci103c,703c@4
•
Workaround— For Solaris 10 5/08 and 10/08, the chipset is supported with the native bge
driver provided by the patch 140120-01.
•
Workaround— For Solaris 10 5/09, the chipset is supported with native bge driver.
