Error
Severity
System Action
Processor model not
Identical
Fatal
The BIOS detects the error condition and responds as follows:
 Logs the POST Error Code into the SEL.
 Alerts the BMC to set the System Status LED to steady
Amber.
 Displays 0196: Processor model mismatch detected
message in the Error Manager.
 Takes Fatal Error action (see above) and will not boot until
the fault condition is remedied.
Processor cores/threads not
identical
Fatal
The BIOS detects the error condition and responds as follows:
 Logs the POST Error Code into the SEL.
 Alerts the BMC to set the System Status LED to steady
Amber.
 Displays 0191: Processor core/thread count mismatch
detected message in the Error Manager.
 Takes Fatal Error action (see above) and will not boot until
the fault condition is remedied.
Processor cache not
identical
Fatal
The BIOS detects the error condition and responds as follows:
 Logs the POST Error Code into the SEL.
 Alerts the BMC to set the System Status LED to steady
Amber.
 Displays 0192: Processor cache size mismatch detected
message in the Error Manager.
 Takes Fatal Error action (see above) and will not boot until
the fault condition is remedied.
Processor frequency (speed)
not identical
Fatal
The BIOS detects the processor frequency difference, and
responds as follows:
 Adjusts all processor frequencies to the highest common
frequency.
 No error is generated – this is not an error condition.
 Continues to boot the system successfully.
If the frequencies for all processors cannot be adjusted to be the
same, then this is an error, and the BIOS responds as follows:
 Logs the POST Error Code into the SEL.
 Alerts the BMC to set the System Status LED to steady
Amber.
 Does not disable the processor.
 Displays 0197: Processor speeds unable to synchronize
message in the Error Manager.
 Takes Fatal Error action (see above) and will not boot until
the fault condition is remedied.
