I'm getting entries in the error logs like the ones attached. From
what I have heard on the list, these could indicate a CPU problem, or
could indicate a memory problem. Since the "processor who logged" is
not always the same, I am guessing it is a memory or application
problem rather then a CPU problem
Does anyone know if application software (perhaps even kernel mods)
can produce the same messages? Is there a way to get more info on
what is causing the problems? I've taken a look at the exerciser and
verifier tool but haven't figured out if (or how) it can be used to
track this down. It would be nice to have a better handle on things
before calling in Digital Service so they don't have to waste a lot of
there time.
thanks
