All event logging is disabled.
Critical This event is generated when all event
logging is disabled.
Logging is disabled.
Critical This event is generated when the ECC
single bit error rate is exceeded.
The system board fail-safe
voltage is outside of range.
Critical This event is generated when the system
board voltages are not at normal levels.
The system board fail-safe
voltage is within range.
Information This event is generated when earlier Fail-
Safe system voltages return to a normal
level.
A hardware incompatibility
detected between BMC/iDRAC
firmware and CPU.
Critical This event is generated when there is a
mismatch between the BMC and iDRAC
firmware and the processor in use or vice
versa.
A hardware incompatibility was
corrected between BMC/ iDRAC
firmware and CPU.
Information This event is generated when an earlier
mismatch between the BMC and iDRAC
firmware and the processor is corrected.
Device option ROM on embedded
NIC failed to support Link
Tuning or FlexAddress.
Critical This event is generated when the PCI
device option ROM for a NIC does not
support link tuning or the Flex addressing
feature.
Device option ROM on mezzanine
card <number> failed to
support Link Tuning or
FlexAddress.
Critical This event is generated when the PCI
device option ROM for a NIC does not
support link tuning or the Flex addressing
feature.
Failed to program virtual MAC
address on a component at bus
<bus> device <device> function
<function>.
Critical This event is generated when BIOS fails to
program virtual MAC address on the given
NIC device.
Failed to get Link Tuning or
FlexAddress data from iDRAC.
Critical This event is generated when BIOS could
not obtain virtual MAC address or Link
Tuning data from iDRAC.
An unknown system hardware
failure detected.
Critical This event is generated when an unknown
hardware failure is detected.
POST fatal error <error
description>
Critical This event is generated when a fatal error
occurs during system boot. For more
information, see POST Code Errors.
POST Code Table
The following table lists the POST Code errors that are generated when a fatal error occurs during system boot.
Table 17. POST Code Table
Fatal Error Code Description Cause
80 No memory detected. This error code implies that no memory is
installed.
81 Memory detected but is not configurable. This error code indicates memory
configuration error that could be a result of
bad memory, mismatched memory or bad
socket.
82 Memory configured but not usable. This error code indicates memory sub-
system failure.
