Could you test whether Solaris 11.4 CBE works fine on your T5240?

Solaris 11.4 requires SPARC T4 or later; the latest Solaris to support the T5240 was
11.3.

(Another possible test of the hardware is illumos as in Tribblix which works very well on
my T5140s - http://tribblix.org/download.html#sparc - or possibly OpenIndiana.)

 

See: https://www.oracle.com/de/solaris/solaris11/downloads/solaris-downloads.html

It's free for non-commercial use.
