x86_64 EDAC throwing error

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]



Hi All,
 
We have installed CentOS 5.3 x86_64 in an HP DL585 server with AMD Opteron 64 bit processor and 16 GB RAM. The kernel version is 2.6.18-128.el5 . Now this has thrown an error message in /var/log/message,
 
Jul  3 21:41:11 db1 kernel: EDAC k8 MC0: general bus error: participating processor(local node origin), time-out(no timeout) memory transaction type(generic read), mem or i/o(mem access), cache level(generic)
Jul  3 21:41:11 db1 kernel: EDAC MC0: CE page 0x65bc7, offset 0x6a0, grain 8, syndrome 0x6e1a, row 0, channel 0, label "": k8_edac

Jul  3 22:12:57 db1 kernel: EDAC k8 MC0: extended error code: ECC chipkill x4 error
 
I understand this is an error message from Error Detection And Control module and just wanna confirm that this is not a kernel or software related issue. If Hardware related is it confined only to the Physical memory stick installed or processor related? Any hint on this??
