Hi,
Look for High Priority Machine Check in the ts99 file.
If you had a
memory error the it would be logged in /var/adm/syslog/syslog.log.

Please see this /etc/shutdownlog file.

This will show more detail

Hi,

is someone issues TC from MP ,wil it give error like this on shutdownlog ..i have a crash ,how to check wheather someone has issues TC from MP .and pls let me know how to check this crash ??

Shalom,

HPMC, High Priority Machine Check causes these problems.

If you lose a CPU for example this will crash the machine and sometimes it won't come up. It doesn't matter how many other CPU's your system has, the OS crashes in this even as designed.

Connect to your GSP/iLo, check the logs and you will see the HPMC.

Its a hardware call. Your system will not be stable until its fixed, even if it does boot.

Hi,

but in MP logs no error at all.my doubt is someone has given TC from MP whcih caused the crash dump .how to check that ?

[Sushil Srivastava]

Have a look on
#cd /var/adm/crash

is there any core file generated .

more /var/adm/shutdownlog

If the core directories are there yoou need to go to the recent core directory

#cd crash.0/
#cat INDEX
This should show you the cause of Panic.

i am not sure my q4 analysi was correct or not.pls find the trace files and let me know ,it is useful or not ..

[Trng]

pls find the MP logs also

I don't think TC from the console can cause the machine check panic. Did the system reboot fine? Did you recently change the processor or something?

Hi,

From the shutdownlog entry, it is clear that the system has rebooted due to panic.
It is not a TC from console

System panic may be due to so many reasons.

Panic may be due to hardware failure, application may cause panic.

Look at /var/adm/crash directory for any dump files. Also see the ts99 file. ts99 file can be viewed to see if any hardware failures. you could get some clue from this file. Also you can see the INDEX file from the crash directory which will give some details. But in any case only HP can give the exact root cause. They only have tools to analyse these log files.

Hope this helps.
