Chris,

This is a common error on the F760 motherboards. This error means that the
NVRAM of your onboard FC controller is bad. If you are using a PCI card at
this point, you can ignore the error. We always fix these errors by
replacing the motherboard, but you really don't have to if you aren't using
the onboard FC controller.

Hope this helps,
Timothy Naple

Subject: Unrecognized NVRAM signature...


One of my F760 filers spits this out on bootup:

Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 GMT [ispfc_init_0:error]: Unrecognized NVRAM signature
on Fibre Channel adapter 0a.
Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 GMT [ispfc_init_0:error]: Invalid WWN of Fibre Channel
adapter 0a. Assigning temporary default 0:000:0a0000:081c0e.

Although everything still works fine. Should I worry?

Regards,
CM
