I have an HS20 Blade which is mounted inside a BladeCenter H Console. When I first boot the machine, it displays the following error:
See the System Error Log. Re-booting due to unexpected NMI at 0012:7AA4.
(See screenshot below for more information)
Then the machine reboots before allowing me to enter the bios configuration or diagnostic utilities to investigate further. I have several questions about this to begin isolating the problem.
- Is this NMI error related to the blade itself or the bladecenter it is plugged into?
- Does this type of error indicate a hardware problem or a software/firmware/bios configuration issue?
- What is the best way to troubleshoot/isolate this issue?
Any help is appreciated to get things moving in the right direction.
