Second Level Cache Memory HPMC Fault.
SLC faults occur when an HPMC, in response to a SLC failure, prevents the system from
completing selftest. Chassis codes provided by the HSC Remote Management card are
useful in troubleshooting this type of error.
If power cycling the server clears the fault, continue troubleshooting by using the “ser
pim” command at the firmware main menu screen. Check the timestamp on the PIM
data to see if the time recorded corresponds to the time of the failure. For assistance with
decoding an HPMC, contact Hewlett-Packard.
Firmware Warning Messages
Firmware is the name given to the system boot instructions and selftest software that is
imbedded into a computer chip instead of stored on disk. Firmware also includes
warnings and error messages that are displayed on the console when selftest finds an
error. Those warnings and messages, and a brief description or action requirement of
