A system includes a mechanism to detect addition of a memory module. In response to the addition of the memory module, a memory test is run to test the new memory module for a defect. If an uncorrectable error is detected, a routine is activated to process the error. Depending on whether the defect occurred in the new memory module or existing memory module(s), different processing is performed.

Handling memory errors in response to adding new memory to a system

An apparatus and method for detecting and controlling interrupt storms in a computer system. More specifically, there is provided a method that comprises detecting whether or not a device is producing an interrupt storm, and if the device is producing an interrupt storm, disabling the interrupt being generated by the device, and a system for implementing the method.

A system includes memory slots to receive memory modules. In response to detecting replacement of a first memory module with a second memory module in a first memory slot, a notification is generated to indicate that a new memory module has been added to a second memory slot that is different from the first memory slot.
