3-60 Diagnostic Tools Critical Error Log The Critical Error Log records memory errors, as well as catastrophic hardware and software errors that cause the system to fail. This information helps you quickly identify and correct the problem, thus minimizing downtime. You can view the Critical Error Log through the Compaq Insight Manager. The Diagnostics Utility either resolves the error or suggests corrective action in systems that do not support event logs. The Critical Error Log identifies and records the following errors. Each error type is briefly explained below. Table 3-24 Critical Error Log Messages Message Abnormal Program Termination Description The operating system has encountered an abnormal situation that has caused a system failure.

Critical Error Log
The Critical Error Log records memory errors, as well as catastrophic hardware and software
errors that cause the system to fail. This information helps you quickly identify and correct the
problem, thus minimizing downtime.
You can view the Critical Error Log through the Compaq Insight Manager. The Diagnostics
Utility either resolves the error or suggests corrective action in systems that do not support event
logs.
The Critical Error Log identifies and records the following errors. Each error type is briefly
explained below.

Critical Error Log Messages
Message
Description
Abnormal Program
Termination
The operating system has encountered an abnormal situation that has caused a system
failure.
ASR-2 detected by ROM
An ASR-2 activity has been detected and logged by the system ROM.
ASR-2 Test Event
The System Configuration Utility generated a test alert.
Automatic Server Recovery
Base Memory Parity Error
The system detected a data error in base memory following a reset due to the Automatic
Server Recovery-2 (ASR-2) timer expiration.
Automatic Server Recovery
Extended Memory Parity
Error
The system detected a data error in extended memory following a reset due to the ASR-2
timer expiration.
Automatic Server Recovery
Memory Parity Error
The system ROM was unable to allocate enough memory to create a stack. Then, it was
unable to put a message on the screen or continue booting the server.
Automatic Server Recovery
Reset Limit Reached
The maximum number of system resets due to ASR-2 timer expiration has been reached,
resulting in the loading of Compaq Utilities.
Battery Failing

configuration memory. Failure of the battery supporting the system’s nonvolatile RAM is
imminent.
Caution: Temperature
Exceeded
The operating system has detected that the temperature of the system has exceeded the
caution level. Accompanying data in the log notes if an auto-shutdown sequence has been
