First Claim
Patent Images
1. A system comprising a first node of components comprising a processor, a memory controller, memory, and a node switch, the memory controller and the node switch each comprising a storage element to record an error condition indicative of whether at least one component provided an indication of detecting an error in response to processing a transaction;
- and a second node of components comprising a processor, a memory controller, memory, and a node switch coupled to the first node, the memory controller and the node switch each comprising a storage element to record an error condition indicative of whether at least one component provided an indication of detecting an error in response to processing a transaction.
