I found the following entry in the system event log of my primary database server today:
Event Type: Error
Event Source: Server Administrator
Event Category: None
Event ID: 1404
Date: 1/5/2005
Time: 3:06:16 AM
User: N/A
Computer: AMERICA
Description:
Memory device status is critical
Memory device location: BANK_1 DIMM_A
Now the funny thing is my co-admin just told me that “oh yeah that error comes up randomly, then goes away for a while”. Now the server runs fine as far as we know – its doing its job, with decent performance levels too.
I know I need to run diagnostic tests on it but that has to wait until after hours….I also am prepared to buy new memory — we already priced it out.
However, I can’t find what exactly event ID 1404 is, I’d like know what it means “officially”.
Please help.
Thanks.
