How does STM handle SBE?

Tony Williams — Fri, 18 Sep 2009 14:29:46 GMT

We got a few dozen SBE errors on a DIMM in a rx4640. A memory page was deallocated. I would just like to refresh my memory.

Is the default logging interval 900 seconds for memory?
How many SBE do you have to get before the default logging interval changes?
What increments does the default logging interval change?

Thanks

Thanks Sameer,

I think this info is old. The dm_memory config no longer exists and it says the logging interval is 60 minutes which is no longer true.

IIRC the system will do the following if a SBE occurs: It is trying to get exclusive access to this area for testing. If it cannot get this area, the interval will be shorter and shorter. You can "help" the system to get access to this area with a system reboot.
