The SBE log begins every time the server is booted.  Once it reaches a certain threshold, it stops counting and alerts you to the problem.  There is a bad DIMM (possibly the slot). Which DIMM(s) is indicated to be the problem? Once you have isolated which is the problem slot, then swap it with another slot.  If the problem follows the DIMM, then it needs to be replaced.  If it stays on the same slot, regardless of which DIMM is in it, then the slot is bad.  If for some reason it is not telling you which is the problem, then boot up with a SINGLE DIMM to isolate the problem one. Also, have you run Dell's 32-bit Diagnostics (MPMemory)?
Hi all, new here!  I recently purchased 7 Dell PowerEdge 2650 server units. They all work fine, but 2 of them are blinking an amber light with "Log disable SBE" message. After googling, I found that this might be a memory stick failure message.  Here's what I tried to make it go away: - Putting the DIMMs in another slot - Clearing the SBE logs in Dell OpenManage (used LiveCD 5.1) - Running ./dcicfg32 command=clearmemfailures - Running memtest86+ 3 times, shows no errors  Everytime I boot the machine, the light is blue, and goes amber at the SAME moment the operating system (Linux CentOS 6.3) starts to load. Any way to make it disappear for good (or just make sure it doesnt report SBE errors) ? It's driving us crazy.  Thanks !
