The failing module is the CPU reporting the failure, except:
If EV_SYN_1F (''CPU reported syndrome 0x1f'') or C3_SYN_1F (''C3 reported
syndrome 0x1f'') bits are set in the error field, known bad data was supplied
to the CPU from another source (either memory or the other CPU).
If C3_MEM_R_ERROR (''CPU error caused by memory'') bit is set,
examine MEMn_UNCORR (''MEM_n Uncorrectable Error'') or MEMn_
SYNC_Error (''MEM_n Chip Sync Error'') to identify which memory was
the source of the error.
If C3_OCPU_ADD_MATCH (''CPU error caused by other CPU'') is set, the
other CPU caused the error.
If other error bits associated with the CPU reporting the error are also set,
there is a probability that the fault is associated with this CPU module.

4.4.5 Note 5: Data Delivered to I/O Is Known Bad

Synopsis:
IO_CB_UNCORR—I/O module received data identified as bad from system bus.
Analysis:
Check to see if the following bits are set for the error field:
MEMn_UNCORR (''MEM_n Uncorrectable Error'')
MEMn_SYNC_Error (''MEM_n Chip Sync Error'')
CPUn_XXXXXX errors (''CPU_n xxx... error'')

4.4.6 Note 6: Futurebus+ DMA Parity Error

Synopsis:
Either an address or data parity error occurred on the Futurebus+ while a DMA
data transfer was executing from a Futurebus+ option to memory (detected by
the I/O module).
Analysis:
The failing module could be either the I/O module or one of the Futurebus+
options. There is no way to isolate to the failing Futurebus+ module from the
error log.
Error Log Analysis 4–15
