The error message is shown, followed by the reason for the message, and a solution to the problem. In these cases, ilomconfig list displays a string indicating the error condition.

Error Message	Problem	Solution
Oracle ILOM does not support health query. Need to have ILOM 3.2.2 or greater.	Oracle ILOM watchdog requires Oracle ILOM 3.2.2 or later to support a health query by IPMI. If you have an earlier version of Oracle ILOM, ILOM watchdog cannot be enabled.	Do one of the following: Disable ILOM watchdog with the following command: `ilomconfig disable ilomwatchdog` Update Oracle ILOM to a later version. After updating Oracle ILOM, run the following command to reload the watchdog: `/etc/init.d/hmp_watchdogd reload` or `service hmp_watchdogd reload`
IPMI command failed connection. Check IPMI driver.	ILOM watchdog uses IPMI to communicate with Oracle ILOM. If there is problem with IPMI on the host so that it is unable to communicate with Oracle ILOM, and the ILOM watchdog is currently in Enable state, the ILOM watchdog automatically notices this and changes to Inactive state.	Troubleshoot the IPMI driver on the host. Once the IPMI problem is resolved, the ILOM watchdog detects it during the time of query interval (default is 60 seconds) after the IPMI problem is resolved, and changes to Enable state.
SP is not running Oracle ILOM.	ILOM watchdog is enabled, but the SP is not running Oracle ILOM. If ILOM watchdog is currently in Enable state, the ILOM watchdog automatically notices this and changes to Inactive state.	Reboot the SP. When ILOM watchdog is in inactive state, once the SP is successfully rebooted, and ILOM watchdog successfully sends a health query to Oracle ILOM, it automatically changes to Enable state.
SP is not running Oracle ILOM or Host-to-ILOM Interconnect is not enabled.	On a platform with Emulex Pilot 3 BMC, and ILOM watchdog enabled, either the SP is not running Oracle ILOM or Host-to-ILOM Interconnect is not enabled. If ILOM watchdog is currently in Enable state, the ILOM watchdog automatically notices this and changes to Inactive state.	Make sure Host-to-ILOM Interconnect is enabled, if so, make sure that the SP is running Oracle ILOM. When ILOM watchdog is in inactive state, once the Host-to-ILOM interconnect is enabled, the SP is successfully running Oracle ILOM, and the ILOM watchdog successfully sends a health query to Oracle ILOM, it will automatically change to Enable state.
Unknown failure in ILOM watchdog.	ILOM watchdog is enabled but encounters some unexpected errors	Report the failure to Oracle.
