  • Cisco UCS Error Watchdog 8190

    I have seen this issue a handful of times at various sites and I thought I would share with you ways you might resolve this issue. 

    Issue/Symptoms:  Cisco B Series blade boots to a WatchDog 8190 Major error halting on every boot. Hitting ESC will allow the current boot process but each reboot will halt on the error.



    Resolution:

    Reset CIMC
    Reset CMOS
    Recover Corrupt BIOS
    Cisco has also recommend in the forum post located here the following workaround as well.

    Work around

    Disabling POST ERROR PAUSE option in BIOS policy would allow the system to complete boot sequence without user intervention
