Event Message Severity Cause
A fatal IO error detected on
a component at bus <number>
device <number> function
<number>.
Critical This error is generated when a fatal IO
error is detected.
A fatal IO error detected on
a component at slot <number>.
Critical This error is generated when a fatal IO
error is detected.
A non-fatal PCIe error
detected on a component at
bus <number> device <number>
function <number>.
Warning This event is generated in association
with a CPU IERR.
A non-fatal PCIe error
detected on a component at
slot <number>.
Warning This event is generated in association
with a CPU IERR.
A non-fatal IO error detected
on a component at bus
<number> device <number>
function <number>.
Warning This event is generated in association
with a CPU IERR and indicates the PCI/
PCIe device that caused the CPU IERR.
Memory device was added at
location <location>.
Information This event is generated when memory is
added to the system.
Memory device is removed from
location <location>.
Information This event is generated when memory is
removed from the system.
Unsupported memory
configuration; check memory
device at location
<location>.
Critical This event is generated when memory
configuration is incorrect for the system.
Correctable memory error rate
exceeded for <location>.
Warning This event is generated when
correctable ECC errors have increased
from a normal rate.
Correctable memory error rate
exceeded for <location>.
Critical This event is generated when
correctable ECC errors reach a critical
rate.
Memory device at location
<location> is overheating.
Critical This event is generated when system
memory reaches critical temperature.
An OEM diagnostic event
occurred.
Information This event is generated when an OEM
event occurs. OEM events can be
used by the service team to better
understand the cause of the failure.
CPU <number> protocol error
detected.
Critical This event is generated when the
processor protocol enters a non-
recoverable state.
CPU bus parity error
detected.
Critical This event is generated when the
processor bus PERR enters a non-
recoverable state.
CPU <number> initialization
error detected.
Critical This event is generated when the
processor initialization enters a non-
recoverable state.
CPU <number> machine check
error detected.
Critical This event is generated when the
processor machine check enters a non-
recoverable state.
All event logging is
disabled.
Critical This event is generated when all event
logging is disabled.
