support.dell.com Error Messages A-5

This module includes errors that cause a system panic to occur. A system panic 
causes the switch to reboot. The error is stored in flash memory with a stack trace, 
local stack content and local register content at the time the error occurred.
To view the trace, allow the switch to reboot and issue the 
traceShow
 command. If 
the trace was caused by an error, the first line displays:
/4+94
Panic errors have the highest severity (0). 
NOTE: Use the 
traceShow
 command to identify panic errors as the 
errShow 
com-
mand is not useful in this case.
Panic errors are described in Table A-2.
