ABSTRACT:
A server computer system receives error data including a physical memory address along with configuration data associated with the physical memory address, and may also include error syndrome data. The server computer system includes a memory error decoder component that is operable to process the physical memory address and configuration data to generate a memory bus address corresponding to the physical memory address. The memory error decoder also processes the error syndrome data to generate the location of an erroneous bit within a group of data bits and all possible electrical routes of the erroneous data bit within a failing computer system. The server system outputs the memory bus address and the location and electrical route of the erroneous data bit.
