Identifying a Failing SIMM
From the console, you can check for flawed or poorly seated SIMMs in
memory boards. This information is useful as a simple on-site check as
part of a service call, as a validation procedure after upgrading a
memory, or adding or changing SIMMs for any reason. Failing SIMMs
are also reported in the error log (see Chapter 4).
Example 3–6 Console Mode: No Failing SIMMS
