| Processor Family Not Identical & Processor Cache not Identical |
Fatal |
The BIOS detects the error condition and responds as follows:
- Logs the error into the system event log (SEL).
- Alerts the Integrated BMC of the configuration error with an IPMI command.
- Does not disable the processor.
- Displays “0194: Processor family mismatch detected” message in the error manager.
- Halts the system.
|
Use the same processor family.
Check the processor compatibility list.
Check the System Event Log for specific error. |
| Processor frequency (Speed) not identical |
Major |
The BIOS detects the error condition and responds as follows:
- Adjusts all processor frequencies to lowest common denominator.
- Continues to boot the system successfully.
- If the frequencies for all processors cannot be adjusted to be the same, then the BIOS:
- Logs the error into the SEL.
- Displays “0197: Processor speeds mismatched” message in the error manager.
- Halts the system
|
Use the same processor family & speed.
Check the processor compatibility list.
Check the System Event Log for specific error. |
| Processor Microcode missing |
Fatal |
The BIOS detects the error condition and responds as follows:
- Logs the error into the SEL.
- Alerts the Integrated BMC of the configuration error with an IPMI command.
- Does not disable processor.
- Displays “816x: Processor 0x unable to apply microcode update” message in the error manager.
- Pauses the system for user intervention.
|
Check the processor compatibility list.
Update the system BIOS to the latest version.
Check the System Event Log for specific error. |
| Processor Intel® QuickPath Interconnect speeds not identical |
Halt |
The BIOS detects the error condition and responds as follows:
- Logs the error into the system event log (SEL).
- Alerts the Integrated BMC of the configuration error with an IPMI command.
- Does not disable the processor.
- Displays “0195: Processor Front Side Bus speed mismatch detected” message in the error manager.
- Halts the system
|
