PSOD on ESXi 5.5.0, 1892794

[glmonarch]

Hello all!

One of my ESXi servers shows this PSOD (in attachment, sorry for image quality). Anybody knows what does it mean?

Tthis server is a member of 4-member cluster.

Thx a lot.

"non-maskable interrupt" event is probably a result of some hardware problem, which could not be auto-corrected:

Hi,

I could see MCE on the PSOD screen. This indicates isssue with Hardware

Please refer vmkernel logs to get more insight on this issue.

What is the model of the HP server and what hp drivers are installed?

I have received the exact same error on one of our HP BL460 G8 and it was an hardware issue, however in troubleshooting with HP, we have decided to install all the firmware upgrades and the latest HP SPP (09/2014) and after booting the server back, everything was fine. the hardware health changed to normal instead of an red x mark.

hope this helps.

Thanks,

Pradeep

HP Proliant DL580 G5 was updated from HP Service Pack DVD 2014.06

Thx, for your reply, but HP SPP 2014.09 does not support my G5. Only HP SPP 2014.06 support it.

Get your HW vendor to perform memory and hardware diagnostics. Make sure BIOS is up to Date.

It seems that the server died. After switching on there is no signal on the monitor and the fans run continuously at high speed. Apparently, it is a problem with hardware.

Thx to all for replies!
