The system status LED is set to a steady amber color for all fatal errors that are detected during
processor initialization. A steady amber system status LED indicates that an unrecoverable system
failure condition has occurred.
• Major: An error message is displayed to the error manager screen and an error is logged to the SEL. If
the BIOS setup option “Post Error Pause” is enabled, operator intervention is required to continue
booting the system. If the BIOS setup option “POST Error Pause” is disabled, the system continues to
boot.
• Minor: An error message may be displayed to the screen or to the BIOS setup error manager and the
POST error code is logged to the SEL. The system continues booting in a degraded state. The user
may want to replace the erroneous unit. The “POST Error Pause” option setting in the BIOS setup
does not have any effect on this error.

If the frequencies for all processors can be adjusted to be the same:
• Adjusts all processor frequencies to the highest common frequency.
• Does not generate an error – 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:
• 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 does not boot until the fault condition is remedied
Processor
Intel® UPI link
frequencies not
identical
Fatal
If the link frequencies for all Intel® Ultra Path Interconnect (Intel® UPI) links can be adjusted to be
the same:
• Adjusts all Intel UPI interconnect link frequencies to highest common frequency.
• Does not generate an error – this is not an error condition.
• Continues to boot the system successfully.
If the link frequencies for all Intel UPI links cannot be adjusted to be the same:
• 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 0195: Processor Intel(R) UPI link frequencies unable to
synchronize message in the error manager.
•
Takes fatal error action (see above) and does not boot until the fault condition is remedied.
