m38-370-12 seems to be down.  It has been rebooted at least twice today.
It says:

SPARCstation 4, Keyboard Present
ROM Rev. 2.24, 32 MB memory installed, Serial #...
Ethernet address ..., Host ID: ...

Testing Memory Memory Address Not Aligned
Type  help for more information
ok

Typing "boot" displays a quick "testing memory" check, and then

Boot device: /iommu/sbus/espdma@4.8400000/esp@4,8800000/sd@3,0  File and args:
Level 15 Interrupt
ok

I typed "reset", and got a long string of what appear to be memory errors:

ERROR: Physical Address  = 0x54138
                Expected = 0xa5a5a5a5
                Observed = 0xa5a5ada5
                U-number = J0301

Is this a problem with the machine's memory?

Thanks for your help...
