Product Architecture Overview Intel® Server Board S2600GZ/GL TPS Error Severity Processor cores/threads not identical Fatal Processor cache not identical Fatal Processor frequency (speed) not identical Fatal System Action The BIOS detects the error condition and responds as follows: Logs the POST Error Code into the SEL. Alerts the BMC to set the System Status LED to steady Amber. Displays "0191: Processor core/thread count mismatch detected" message in the Error Manager. Takes Fatal Error action (see above) and will not boot until the fault condition is remedied. The BIOS detects the error condition and responds as follows: Logs the POST Error Code into the SEL. Alerts the BMC to set the System Status LED to steady Amber. Displays "0192: Processor cache size mismatch detected message in the Error Manager. Takes Fatal Error action (see above) and will not boot until the fault condition is remedied. The BIOS detects the processor frequency difference, and responds as follows: Adjusts all processor frequencies to the highest common frequency. No error is generated - this is not an error condition. Continues to boot the system successfully. Processor Intel® QuickPath Interconnect link frequencies not identical Fatal If the frequencies for all processors cannot be adjusted to be the same, then this is an error, and the BIOS responds as follows: Logs the POST Error Code into the SEL. Alerts the BMC to set the System Status LED to steady Amber. Does not disable the processor. Displays "0197: Processor speeds unable to synchronize" message in the Error Manager. Takes Fatal Error action (see above) and will not boot until the fault condition is remedied. The BIOS detects the QPI link frequencies and responds as follows: Adjusts all QPI interconnect link frequencies to highest common frequency. No error is generated - this is not an error condition. Continues to boot the system successfully. Processor microcode update missing Minor If the link frequencies for all QPI links cannot be adjusted to be the same, then this is an error, and the BIOS responds as follows: Logs the POST Error Code into the SEL. Alerts the BMC to set the System Status LED to steady Amber. Displays "0195: Processor Intel® QPI link frequencies unable to synchronize" message in the Error Manager. Does not disable the processor. Takes Fatal Error action (see above) and will not boot until the fault condition is remedied. The BIOS detects the error condition and responds as follows: Logs the POST Error Code into the SEL. Displays "818x: Processor 0x microcode update not found" message in the Error Manager or on the screen. The system continues to boot in a degraded state, regardless of the setting of POST Error Pause in the Setup. 14 Revision 1.1 Intel order number G24881-004
