Note: Logical CPU failure invokes software takeover, system keeps running.

July 2006

Cascading Faults

• Most outages result from cascading faults rather than single faults−Example: a CPU halts (for any reason) and a defect in

recovery code in another CPU induces another halt

• Therefore, masking of single halts is beneficial even when the application is fault tolerant−Reduces the opportunities for having an outage

• DMR and TMR mask single hardware failures

• S series and NSVA do not

July 2006

Impact of Repairing a CPU

• S series:−Loss of the logical processor

• NSVA:−Loss of the logical processor

• DMR:−No loss of logical processor(s)− Loss of fault tolerance and guaranteed data integrity for

all logical processors in that blade complex

• TMR:−No loss of logical processor(s)−No loss of fault tolerance for any logical processors in

that blade complex
