APEI Generic Hardware Error on a linux sever on a PCI OCP

pa flag

This error appears when executing a stress test on a server and already discarded the possibility of being a HW Issue(already replace OCP and entire conections to the OCP cables, boards, etc), haven't change CPU's, RAM's, or SSD's because is not very probable that will be the cause.

What problem do you have, what question are you asking? What tool is doing the "Dmesg check", and what is the criteria for failure?

It could be CPU related.

The errors happened on vendor_id: 0x8086, device_id: 0x347a, which is a pci:8086-347a | Intel | Core i9/Xeon PCIe Port A

Also the port type is the root port.

But the error is corrected. If nothing else is broken, and it does not happen a lot. You could just ignore it. Or try to change CPU ( or try on a different hw )

Most people don’t grasp that asking a lot of questions unlocks learning and improves interpersonal bonding. In Alison’s studies, for example, though people could accurately recall how many questions had been asked in their conversations, they didn’t intuit the link between questions and liking. Across four studies, in which participants were engaged in conversations themselves or read transcripts of others’ conversations, people tended not to realize that question asking would influence—or had influenced—the level of amity between the conversationalists.
