Error Reporting and Handling
This chapter defines following error handling features:
Error Handling and Logging
Error Messages and Beep Codes
5.1
Error Handling and Logging
This section defines how errors are handled by the system BIOS. In addition, error-logging
techniques are described and beep codes for errors are defined.
5.1.1
Error Sources and Types
One of the major requirements of server management is to correctly and consistently handle
system errors. System errors that can be enabled and disabled individually or as a group can be
categorized as follows:
PCI bus
Memory single- and multi-bit errors
Errors detected during POST, logged as POST errors
The event list follows:
Table 41. Event List
Event Name
Description
When Error Is Caught
Processor thermal trip of last boot
Processor thermal trip happened on
last boot.
POST
Memory channel A Multi-bit ECC
error
Multi-bit ECC error happened on
DIMM channel A.
POST / Runtime
Memory channel A Single-bit ECC
error
Single-bit ECC error happened on
DIMM channel A.
POST / Runtime
Memory channel B Multi-bit ECC
error
Multi-bit ECC error happened on
DIMM channel B.
POST / Runtime
Memory channel B Single-bit ECC
error
Single-bit ECC error happened on
DIMM channel B.
POST / Runtime
CMOS battery failure
CMOS battery failure or CMOS
clear jumper is set to clear CMOS.
POST
CMOS checksum error
CMOS data crushed
POST
CMOS time not set
CMOS time is not set
POST
Keyboard not found
PS/2 KB is not found during POST
POST
Memory size decrease
Memory size is decreased
compared with last boot
POST
Chassis intrusion detected
Chassis is open
POST
Bad SPD tolerance
Some fields of the DIMM SPD may
not be supported, but could be
tolerant by the Memory Reference
POST
