Event Message Severity Cause
Fan failure detected on power
supply <number>.
Critical The specied power supply fan has failed.
Communication has been
restored to power supply
<number>.
Information This event is generated when the power
supply has recovered from an earlier
communication problem.
A power supply wattage
mismatch is detected; power
supply <number> is rated for
<value> watts.
Critical This event is generated when there is more
than one power supplies in the system and
the power supply wattage do not match.
Power supply <number> wattage
mismatch corrected.
Information This event is generated when the power
supply has recovered from an earlier power
supply wattage mismatch.
Power supply redundancy is
lost.
Critical Power supply redundancy is lost if only one
power supply is functional.
Power supply redundancy is
degraded.
Warning Power supply redundancy is degraded if one
of the power supply sources is removed or
failed.
The power supplies are
redundant.
Information This event is generated if the power supply
has been reconnected or replaced.
Memory ECC Events
The memory ECC event messages monitor the memory modules in a system. These messages monitor the ECC memory correction rate
and the type of memory events that occurred.
Table 10. Memory ECC Events
Event Message Severity Cause
ECC error correction detected
on Bank # DIMM [A/B].
Information This event is generated when there is a
memory error correction on a particular Dual
Inline Memory Module (DIMM).
ECC uncorrectable error
detected on Bank # [DIMM].
Critical This event is generated when the chipset is
unable to correct the memory errors.
Usually, a bank number is provided and
DIMM may or may not be identiable,
depending on the error.
Correctable memory error
logging disabled.
Critical This event is generated when the chipset in
the ECC error correction rate exceeds a
predened limit.
Persistent correctable memory
errors detected on a memory
device at location(s) <DIMM
number>.
Warning This event is generated when there is a
memory error correction on a particular Dual
Inline Memory Module (DIMM).
Multi-bit memory errors
detected on a memory device at
location(s) <location>.
Critical This event is generated when the chipset is
unable to correct the memory errors.
Usually, more than on DIMM is listed
