BMC error messages

When a hardware event is detected by the BMC on the server, the BMC writes that event in the system-event log on the server.

For each event code, the following fields are displayed:
Event identifier
An identifier that uniquely identifies an event.
Explanation
Provides additional information to explain why the event occurred.
Severity
An indication of the level of concern for the condition. The following severities can be displayed.

  • Informational. The event was recorded for audit purposes, usually a user action or a change of states that is normal behavior.

  • Warning. The event is not as severe as an error, but if possible, the condition should be corrected before it becomes an error. It might also be a condition that requires additional monitoring or maintenance.

  • Error. The event is a failure or critical condition that impairs service or an expected function.

Serviceable
Specifies whether user action is required to correct the problem.
User response
Indicates what actions you should perform to solve the event. Perform the steps listed in this section in the order shown until the problem is solved. If you cannot solve the problem after performing all steps, contact Lenovo Support.
