DescriptionName
Whether the BIOS generates a non-maskable interrupt (NMI)
and logs an error when a system error (SERR) occurs. This can
be one of the following:
• disabled—The BIOS does not generate an NMI or log an
error when a SERR occurs.
• enabled—The BIOS generates an NMI and logs an error
when a SERR occurs. You must enable this setting if you
want to enable Assert Nmi on Perr.
• Platform Default—The BIOS uses the value for this
attribute contained in the BIOS defaults for the server type
and vendor.
Assert Nmi on Serr
Whether the BIOS generates a non-maskable interrupt (NMI)
and logs an error when a processor bus parity error (PERR)
occurs. This can be one of the following:
• disabled—The BIOS does not generate an NMI or log an
error when a PERR occurs.
• enabled—The BIOS generates an NMI and logs an error
when a PERR occurs. You must enable Assert Nmi on
Serr to use this setting.
• Platform Default—The BIOS uses the value for this
attribute contained in the BIOS defaults for the server type
and vendor.
Assert Nmi on Perr
Whether the BIOS programs the watchdog timer with a
predefined timeout value. If the operating system does not
complete booting before the timer expires, the CIMC resets the
system and an error is logged. This can be one of the following:
• disabled—The watchdog timer is not used to track how
long the server takes to boot.
• enabled—The watchdog timer tracks how long the server
takes to boot. If the server does not boot within the
predefined length of time, theCIMC resets the system and
logs an error.
• Platform Default—The BIOS uses the value for this
attribute contained in the BIOS defaults for the server type
and vendor.
This feature requires either operating system support or Intel
Management software.
