Trying to understand: Processor 3 below trip temperature. Throttling disabled


Hi I am getting below error in mcelog and message log but what does this means

Processor 3 below trip temperature. Throttling disabled
STATUS 40000000883b0808 MCGSTATUS 0
MCGCAP 1000c12 APICID 6 SOCKETID 0
CPUID Vendor Intel Family 6 Model 45

Am I interpreting this right

"Processor 3 is running below trip temperature"; which is good, since it is not over heating there for no no need to throttle, hence "Throttling disabled".

Hope I am making sense, since for me utterly confusing, why log this event if there is no significant

Thanks and Regards

You've been here for TEN YEARS now...you should know that unless you actually provide DETAILS (like version/distro of Linux, hardware, etc.), there's not a lot we can tell you. We can't guess.

Assuming you're using CentOS/RHEL, you're right. However, you also need to take into account version of the kernel, lm_sensors, and other factors..sometimes BIOS settings too, to set a good overheat/trip point.

Hi TB0ne, thsnk you for the reply and I am sorry for lack of information, below the environment details

Its a Blade system
HW - Dell PowerEdge M620

OS - Oracle linux 6.3
Kernel - 2.6.39-200.24.1.el6uek.x86_64

This is getting log continuously, further investigation we found this is a bug in this kernel with Dell

http://www.dell.com/support/article/...9/SLN266056/EN

here it mention to pass a boot loader "Clear PLN flag adding clearcpuid=229 to grub.conf" or to up grade the kernel (in a different post).

Thanks and best Regards
