White Paper on Dynamic Processor Deallocation and Dynamic Processor Resilience

Event Time..........: Wed Feb 20 08:55:50 2002
Severity............: SERIOUS
Monitor.............: lpmc_em
Event #.............: 100624
System..............: hptest17
Summary:
Module at Hard Physical Address = 0xfffffffffc478000 : Cache Error(s)
detected on Processor 16.
Description of Error:
2 parity errors have been detected in either Instruction or Data memory
(I-Cache or D-Cache) in 1 Day(s). These are indicated by 100611 100612
EMS Event(s) generated prior to this event. The operating system has
recovered from the errors, but this is an abnormally high failure rate.
Contact your HP support representative to have the processor checked
before a catastrophic failure occurs. The monitor tried to deactivate the
processor for the current session but was not successful. However, the
processor is deconfigured for the next boot session. The system should
be rebooted as soon as possible.
Probable Cause / Recommended Action:
Contact your HP support representative to have the processor checked.
