6.2 Catastrophic Error Sensor
When the Catastrophic Error signal (CATERR#) stays asserted, it is a sign that something serious has gone wrong in the hardware.
The BMC monitors this signal and reports when it stays asserted.
Table 49: Catastrophic Error Sensor Typical Characteristics
Byte Field Description
11 Sensor Type 07h = Processor
12 Sensor Number 80h
13 Event Direction and
Event Type [7] Event direction
0b = Assertion Event
1b = Deassertion Event
[6:0] Event Type = 03h (Digital Discrete)
14 Event Data 1 [7:6] – 10b = OEM code in Event Data 2
[5:4] – 10b = OEM code in Event Data 3
[3:0] – Event Trigger Offset = 1h (State Asserted)
15 Event Data 2 Event Data 2 values as described in Table 50.
16 Event Data 3 Bitmap of the CPU that causes the system CATERR.
[0]: CPU1
[1]: CPU2
[2]: CPU3
[3]: CPU4
Note: If more than one bit is set, the BMC cannot
determine the source of the CATERR.

1. Cross test the processors.
2. Replace the processors depending on the results of the test.
