LCD Error Messages

Table 1. CMC Status Screens. The following table describes the CMC statuses and their causes.
Severity Message Cause
Critical The CMC <number> battery failed. CMC CMOS battery is missing or has no voltage.
Critical CMC <number> LAN heartbeat was lost. The CMC NIC connection has been removed or is not connected.
Warning A firmware or software incompatibility detected between iDRAC in slot <number> and CMC. Firmware between the two devices does not match in order to support one or more features.
Warning A firmware or software incompatibility detected between system BIOS in slot <number> and CMC. Firmware between the two devices does not match in order to support one or more features.
Warning A firmware or software incompatibility detected between CMC 1 and CMC 2. Firmware between the two devices does not match in order to support one or more features.
Table 2. Enclosure/Chassis Status Screen . The following table describes the enclosure or chassis statuses and their causes.
Severity Message Cause
Critical Fan <number> is removed. This fan is required for proper cooling of the enclosure/chassis.
Warning Power supply redundancy is degraded. One or more PSU have failed or removed and the system can no longer support full PSU redundancy.
Critical Power supply redundancy is lost. One or more PSU have failed or removed and the system is no longer redundant.
Critical The power supplies are not redundant. Insufficient resources to maintain normal operations. One or more PSU have failed or removed and the system lacks sufficient power to maintain normal operations. This could cause servers to power down.
Warning The control panel ambient temperature is greater than the upper warning threshold. Chassis/Enclosure intake temperature exceeded the warning threshold.
Critical The control panel ambient temperature is greater than the upper warning threshold. Chassis/Enclosure intake temperature exceeded the warning threshold.
Critical CMC redundancy is lost. CMC no longer redundant. This happens if the standby CMC is removed.
Critical All event logging is disabled. The Chassis/Enclosure cannot store events to the logs. This usually indicates a problem with the control panel or control panel cable.
Warning Log is full. Chassis has detected that only one more entry can be added to the CEL (hardware log) before it is full.
Warning Log is almost full. Chassis event log is 75% full.
Table 3. Fan Status Screens. The following table describes the fan statuses and their causes.
Severity Message Cause

Critical

Fan <number> RPM is operating less than the lower critical threshold.

The speed of the specified fan is not sufficient to provide enough cooling to the system.

Critical

Fan <number> RPM is operating greater than the upper critical threshold.

The speed of the specified fan is too high, usually due to a broken fan blade.

Table 4. IOM Status Screens. The following table describes the IOM statuses and their causes.
Severity Message Cause

Warning

A fabric mismatch detected on I/O module <number>.

The IO module fabric does not match that of the server or the redundant I/O module.

Warning

A link tuning failure detected on I/O module <number>.

The IO module could not be set to correctly use the NIC on one or more servers.

Critical

A failure is detected on I/O module <number>.

The I/O module has a fault. The same error can also happen if the I/O module is thermal-tripped.

Table 5. iKVM Status Screen . The following table describes the iKVM statuses and their causes.
Severity Message Cause

Warning

Console is not available for Local KVM.

Minor failure, such as corrupted firmware.

Critical

Local KVM can not detect any hosts.

USB host enumeration failure.

Critical

OSCAR, on screen display is not functional for the Local KVM.

OSCAR failure.

Non- Recoverable

Local KVM is not functional, and is powered off.

Serial RIP failure or USB host chip failure.

Table 6. PSU Status Screens. The following table describes the PSU statuses and their causes.
Severity Message Cause
Critical Power supply <number> failed. The PSU has failed.
Critical The power input for power supply <number> is lost. Loss of AC power or AC cord unplugged.
Warning Power supply <number> is operating at 110 volts, and could cause a circuit breaker fault. Power supply is plug into a 110 volt source.
Table 7. Server Status Screen . The following table describes the server statuses and their causes.
Severity Message Cause
Warning The system board ambient temperature is less than the lower warning threshold. Server temperature is getting cool.
Critical The system board ambient temperature is less than the lower critical threshold. Server temperature is getting cold.
Warning The system board ambient temperature is greater than the upper warning threshold. Server temperature is getting warm.
Critical The system board ambient temperature is greater than the upper critical threshold. Server temperature is getting too hot.
Critical The system board Current Latch current is outside of the allowable range Current crossed a failing threshold.
Critical The system board battery failed. CMOS battery is not present or has no voltage.
Warning The storage battery is low. ROMB battery is low.
Critical The storage battery failed. CMOS battery is not present or has no voltage.
Critical The CPU <number> <voltage sensor name > voltage is outside of the allowable range.  
Critical The system board<voltage sensor name > voltage is outside of the allowable range.  
Critical The mezzanine card <number> <voltage sensor name > voltage is outside of the allowable range.  
Critical The storage <voltage sensor name > voltage is outside of the allowable range.  
Critical CPU <number> has an internal error (IERR). CPU failure.
Critical CPU <number> has a thermal trip (over-temperature) event. CPU overheated.
Critica CPU <number> configuration is unsupported. Incorrect processor type or in wrong location.
Critical CPU <number> is absent. Required CPU is missing or not present.
Critical Mezz B<slot number> Status: Add-in Card sensor for Mezz B<slot number>, install error was asserted. Incorrect Mezzanine card installed for IO fabric.
Critical Mezz C<slot number> Status: Add-in Card sensor for Mezz C<slot number>, install error was asserted. Incorrect Mezzanine card installed for IO fabric.
Critical Drive <number> is removed. Storage Drive was removed.
Critical Fault detected on Drive <number>. Storage Drive failed.
Critical The system board fail-safe voltage is outside of the allowable range. This event is generated when the system board voltages are not at normal levels.
Critical The watchdog timer expired. The iDRAC watchdog timer expires and no action is set.
Critical The watchdog timer reset the system. The iDRAC watchdog detected that the system has crashed (timer expired because no response was received from Host) and the action is set to reboot.
Critical The watchdog timer powered off the system. The iDRAC watchdog detected that the system has crashed (timer expired because no response was received from Host) and the action is set to power off.
Critical The watchdog timer power cycled the system. The iDRAC watchdog detected that the system has crashed (timer expired because no response was received from Host) and the action is set to power cycle.
