NOTE:
PCI Error Recovery is not supported on all platforms. To determine if PCI Error Recovery
is supported on your system, see the PCI Error Recovery Support Matrix at http://www.hp.com/
go/hpux-iocards-docs.
With the PCI Error Recovery feature enabled, if an error occurs on a PCI bus containing an I/O
card that supports PCI Error Recovery, the following events occur:
•
The PCI bus is quarantined to isolate the system from I/O and to prevent the error from
damaging the system.
•
The PCI Error Recovery feature attempts to recover from the error and reinitialize the bus so
I/O can resume.
If the PCI Error Recovery feature is disabled and an error occurs on a PCI bus, a Machine Check
Abort (MCA) or a High Priority Machine Check (HPMC) occurs, the system crashes.
For more information about PCI Error Recovery, see the documents in the PCI Error Recovery section
at http://www.hp.com/go/hpux-iocards-docs.
