Appendix D. Integrated management module II (IMM2) error
messages
Use this information to resolve IMM2 error messages.
Note: This documentation includes references to IBM web sites and information about obtaining service.
IBM is Lenovo's preferred service provider for the System x products.
When a hardware event is detected by the IMM on the server, the IMM logs that event in the system-event
log in the server.
For each event code, the following fields are displayed:
Event identifier
A hexadecimal identifier that uniquely identifies an event or class of events. In this documentation, the
event identifiers are prefixed with 0x and followed by eight characters.
Event description
The logged message string that appears for an event. When the event string is displayed in the
system-event log, information such as a specific component is displayed. In this documentation, that
additional information appears as variables, such as [arg1] or [arg2].
Explanation
Additional information to explain why the event occurred.
Severity
An indication of the level of concern for the condition. In the system-event log, severity is abbreviated to
the first character. The following severities can be displayed.
Info:
The event was recorded for audit purposes, usually a user action or a change of states that is
normal behavior.
Warning:
The event is not as severe as an error, but if possible, the condition should be corrected before it
becomes an error. It might also be a condition that requires additional monitoring or maintenance.
Error:
The event is a failure or critical condition that impairs service or an expected function.
Alert Category
Similar events are grouped together in categories. The alert category is in the following format:

severity is one of the following severity levels:
• Critical: A key component in the server is no longer functioning.
