[OmniOS-discuss] Overheating faults with ST4000NM0023

[Schweiss, Chip]

Are you sure you have SAS multipath disabled on the disk you are trying to
flash?

I couldn't get these to flash at all with MP enabled.  I too kept getting
OS related errors.

For one system I did an stmsboot -d, for another I just pulled one of the
SAS cables to each JBOD.
