So what does Processor transition to Non-recoverable mean?

[Fred Skrotzki]

Well The box hung about a hour after error was logged.  But the box
never had a High temp problem as we monitor that via snmp. I've got 120
of these units in 5 racks in a high end DC and none of them reported
anything out of the norm.

I'm currently going under the assumption that a processor is maybe going
in the box.  We've moved the box from a front line production box to a
backend redundent box so we'll see.

Thanks for replying.

In my experience this is a way to say "the cpu or something equally
critical hung". Has for me often turned out to be heat or hardware error
related.
