Function: system cache messages (202)
Result Test-specific string
Note: If you receive any diagnostic error messages that are not shown in this table, make sure that
your server has the latest levels of BIOS, Advanced System Management Processor, and diagnostics
microcode installed. If the problem persists, have the system serviced.
Aborted Test setup error: BIOS cannot access VPD information
Action: If your server does not have the latest level of BIOS installed, update the
BIOS to the latest level and run the diagnostic program again. Refer to Chapter 7,
"Getting help, service, and information" on page 161 for information about obtaining
updates.
If the problem persists, have the system serviced.
Aborted Test setup error: Corrupt DMI BIOS. Information in BIOS is not as expected

setup problem
where xyz identifies the microprocessor causing the error message.
Action:
1. If your server does not have the latest level of BIOS installed, update the BIOS
to the latest level and run the diagnostic program again. Refer to Chapter 7,
"Getting help, service, and information" on page 161 for information about
obtaining updates.
2. If the problem persists, replace the identified microprocessor.

socket id xyz
where xyz identifies the microprocessor causing the error message.
Action:
1. If your server does not have the latest level of BIOS installed, update the BIOS
to the latest level and run the diagnostic program again. Refer to Chapter 7,
"Getting help, service, and information" on page 161 for information about
