Symptoms

Users are reporting Service Processor performance degradation and periodic ILOM hangs after installing Oracle Hardware Management Pack (HMP) version 2.3.2 on systems configured with Oracle VM I/O domains.

The hangs appear to occur much quicker on more recent firmwares, such as ILOM 3.2.5.3.b which is used in T4-x system firmware 8.7.2.b & in T5-x system firmware 9.4.2.e.

Affected releases;

Solaris 10 with Oracle HMP patch 20957445 installed
Solaris 11, 11.1 with Oracle HMP patch 20957457 installed
Solaris 11.2 SRU 8.5

Oracle HMP is installed by default with Solaris 11.2 with release 2.3.2 integrated into SRU8.5 and later.
