It may be useful to shut down the operating system and run memexer_mp at the console with a laptop connected recording the output.  Search for the " AlphaServer ES47/ES80/GS1280  Server Management SRM Console Reference"  for details.  Using the console diagnostic can pin down a hardware error.  You need an option to trap the output,  a monitor or terminal allows error messages to scroll out sight.

Yeah, it can be taken out of service. It is not doing anything right now anyway. Grabbing the console output should be possible so i can definately try that, thanks
