– All high speed links including Intel Quick Path Interconnect (QPI), Intel Scalable
Memory Interconnect (SMI), and PCIe have CRC check and retry.

– Each blade/node installed has status LEDs that indicate the blade's operational
condition; LEDs are readable at the front of the IRU.
– Systems support the optional SGI Remote Services (SGI RS), a tool that monitors the
system; when a condition occurs that may cause a failure, the remote services software
agent notifies the appropriate SGI personnel.

• Power-on and boot:
– Automatic testing occurs after you power on the system. (These power-on self-tests or

– Processors and memory are automatically de-allocated when a self-test failure occurs.
– Boot times are minimized.
• Further RAS features:
– All system faults are logged in files.
