Description Event Sensor Type Event Type Event Offset
FAN PROBLEMS
Generic Critical Fan
failure
04h (Fan) 07h (generic severity)
02h (transition to Critical
from less severe)
Generic predictive Fan
failure
03h (generic
digital/discrete event)
01h (predictive failure
asserted)
Fan Speed Problem
(speed too low to meet
chassis cooling spec’s)
02h (Lower Critical - going
low)
Fan Speed Warning
(Fan speed below
expected speed.
Cooling still adequate)
01h (Threshold-based)
00h (Lower Non-Critical,
going low)
Case Intrusion.
05h (Physical Security
[Chassis Intrusion])
6Fh (Sensor specific)
00h (General Chassis
Intrusion)
3.1.5.2 System Firmware Error Events
This document defines a standard set of system firmware errors that are reported in the Event
Data 2 PET sub-field for Sensor Type 0Fh (System Firmware Error/Progress), Sensor-specific
Offset 00h (Standard System Firmware Error):
Descriptor
Code
Description
00h Unspecified.
01h No system memory is physically installed in the system.
02h
No usable system memory, all installed memory has experienced an unrecoverable
failure.
03h Unrecoverable hard-disk/ATAPI/IDE device failure.
04h Unrecoverable system-board failure.
05h Unrecoverable diskette subsystem failure.
06h Unrecoverable hard-disk controller failure.
07h Unrecoverable PS/2 or USB keyboard failure.
08h Removable boot media not found
09h Unrecoverable video controller failure
0Ah No video device detected.
0Bh Firmware ROM corruption detected
0Ch
CPU VID Mismatch. One or more processors sharing the same voltage supply have
mismatched voltage requirements.
0Dh CPU speed-matching failure.
0Eh to FFh Reserved for future definition by this specification.
This table describes the Specific Trap Field and Entity values associated with some typical
system firmware errors. The Event Type sub-field for all these events is set to 6Fh (Sensor
specific). See above or section 3.1.5.3 for the Event Data 2 field definitions for Event Offset
values 00h and 01h, respectively.
