POST error codes

The following table lists error codes that might be sent to the management module for error logging as BMC pass-through error entries for the management module system-error log (SEL).

Note: The syntax of error logging between the management module and the SEL might be different. Local SEL error codes might differ from the SEL entries logged by the management module for identical event types.

In the following error codes, X can be any number or letter.

Note: See Chapter 7, “Parts listing, Type 8839,” on page 105 to determine which components should be replaced by a field service technician.
