Compaq Advanced System Management Controller ML350 - G3
(OP)
I got a wake up call this morning for our ML350 G3 servers being down. In the HP log it shows
PCI Bus Error (Slot 0, Bus 0, Device 5, function 0)
The system management homepage shows that
Bus 0 - Device 5 - PCI Compaq Advanced System Management Controller
From what I gather, this basically handles the HP logs, and some of the other options typically found under the "Compaq System Tools", but I can not find an extensive description on what it does. Does anyone know?
I want to know what will happen if it totally craps out.
This should hopefully light a fire under finance to give me the money to upgrade this archaic server.

I've seen that error when the driver gets an unexpected hardware fault that is not in it's list.
Go through all the hardware logs on your OS. If your OS uses EFS extensions, upgrade to the latest supported EFS for your OS.

Its been running near perfectly for 6 years now. There has been no hardware / software / driver changes in over 2 years, but I will look into the driver.
