processor down. This halt could be caused by excessive interrupts, by long periods of disabling
interrupts, or by problems on the ServerNet.

control blocks (XLBs).

%004040 through %004057
Cause
A processor was declared down by the other live processors because it failed to communicate
with them.
The number in the least significant four bits (that is, n where the halt code is %004040 + n) is
the number of the live processor that declared the failing processor down and sent it a “poison
packet” to assure that it is down.
Effect
All freeze-enabled processors halt.
