There's a Sun Ultra5 in the bldg66 basement cluster that's down.
I don't know its address, but it's the 2nd Sun in the row nearest the
printers.
I was logged in, using Warp 4.2, when it suddenly went into
console mode and threw a panic message, about a parity error in
a CPU ecache tag, and rebooted.
On reboot, it almost completed startup, but threw the panic message again:
   "panic[CPU0]/thread=0x60b85a60: CPU0 Ecache tag error..."
and rebooted.
After that, it couldn't even get past the first couple of startup lines.
After letting it reboot 3 more times, I shut off the power.
