System Fault
Management and
Diagnostics
HP ProLiant DL580 Gen9 offers advanced error recovery, component quarantine, fault tolerance
and event reporting features to enable class-leading availability and rock-solid reliability that
businesses can depend on. The DL580 Gen9 server firmware features advanced machine check
architecture and memory fault tolerance capabilities that customers need for running their mission-
critical applications. These advanced fault management features combine with quality components
(HP Qualified Options) and extensive qualification to provide a high degree of system availability.
HP Advanced Error Recovery
Introduced with the HP ProLiant DL580 Gen9, HP Advanced Error Recovery enables applications
to recover from uncorrectable errors found in processor, cache and memory during execution. The
system firmware works with the operating system and/or hypervisor and/or end-application to
enable the optimal recovery response so that the impact of the error can be avoided or minimized.
Where such an error would have crashed the system in the past, with HP Advanced Error
Recovery, the system can continue to function with limiting the impact of the error to a killed/re-
started thread, process and/or virtual machine.
NOTE:
Supported on Intel® E7-4800/8800 v2 or v3 based systems only
On select Operating Systems, Hypervisors and end-applications that support Intel Machine
Check Architecture Recovery feature.

HP Memory Quarantine
HP Memory Quarantine Identifies memory regions containing uncorrectable hardware errors by
using a patrol scrubber and isolates the bad memory location before it affects other data. If an
error is found, the hardware attempts to correct it. If the hardware cannot correct the error, the
platform firmware notifies the operating system. Depending on the state of the memory pages
