syslog error messages

John M. Fritsch — Fri, 23 Aug 2002 18:42:13 GMT

I am seeing the following message in syslog

Aug 21 00:00:00 lvh21 vmunix: Detected Low Priority Machine Check.
Aug 21 00:00:00 lvh21 vmunix: LPMC type : SEDC (ECC-corrected single-bit error)
Aug 21 00:00:00 lvh21 vmunix: Error Address : 0x616dc90

Can anyone tell me what this means?

Hello,

This says about a hardware error while reading the memory. Check the memory modules with STM tools or get it checked with the hardware support.

You are experiencing correctable memory errors. If they continue, you should have the memory module replaced before you get an uncorrectable error which will cause a system panic.

You have had a correctable memory error. This in itself is not normally a problem, but if they continue you may end up with problems.

If you see them again I would have the memory module replaced before it fails.
