Event Message Severity Cause
A fatal error was detected on
a component at bus <number>
device <number> function
<number>.
Critical This error is generated when a fatal error is
detected on the PCI bus.
A fatal error was detected on
a component at slot <number>.
Critical This error is generated when a fatal error is
detected on the PCI bus.
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.
