Memory Troubleshooting
The Prioris XL 6000 Series server POST can detect memory errors when it
boots. The error can be isolated to one of the DIMMs installed on the main logic
board.
The memory error message format is as follows:
<Type of <Error>: <Location>
Where:
<Type of Error> Correctable error
Uncorrectable error
<Location> Main logic board DIMM 0
Main logic board DIMM 1
Main logic board DIMM 2
Main logic board DIMM 3
Example:
Uncorrectable Error : Main Logic Board DIMM 0
If a correctable error occurs, the BIOS will display: “Press <F1> to resume” after
the server boots.
If an uncorrectable error occurs, the server will halt after the memory test.
To isolate to the failing DIMM, replace one of the DIMMs which was indicated in
the POST error message with a similar DIMM and then rerun POST. If the
same error message occurs, replace the DIMM.
