BIOS POST Errors
Each power-on self-test (POST) diagnostic is a low-level test designed
to pinpoint faults in a specific hardware component. If a POST diagnostic
discloses an error, it typically reports the following information about the
error:
The following table lists some of the error messages that might appear
during the POST diagnostics, and provides instructions for resolving the errors.
Note - Contact Oracle Service for information about interpreting and
applying the Oracle ILOM log information that you receive on these errors.
