Behavior at Occurrence of Error
If POST or OS startup does not finish normally, the server will reboot itself automatically.
At the time of reboot, it will select the other CPU/IO module and run POST or OS startup.
In this manner, the server retries POST or OS startup with different combinations of CPU/IO
modules. If POST does not finish normally with any combinations, the server will stop with the
state of DC OFF or Post end with an error message displayed.
While performing retries, the server displays or registers the error types.
