Symptômes

Alert Indicating DIMM Issue

The system reports the following alert:

  • PPDMA DM5510 Alert CTL47 - Single-bit ECC error on the specified DIMM

Cause

DIMM Hardware Failure Triggering ECC Alerts

The DIMM has experienced a hardware malfunction that generates a single‑bit ECC error. The PPDMA DM5510 Alert CTL47 alert code identifies this condition and indicates that the memory module cannot reliably store or retrieve data.

  • DIMM internal circuitry has degraded or failed, causing error detection mechanisms to mark a single‑bit ECC fault.
  • The system firmware reports this error:
    PPDMA DM5510 Alert CTL47
    This pinpoints the affected DIMM.
  • Because the DIMM is part of the controller battery pack, its failure directly impacts the controller’s ability to maintain data integrity.
  • Data loss or corruption may occur if the faulty DIMM continues to operate.

Continued operation of a malfunctioning DIMM can lead to irreversible data loss or corruption.

Résolution

Replace the DIMM immediately.

  • The DIMM is a part of the controller battery pack.
  • Refer to your hardware documentation for information about replacing the DIMM.
