Description : The number of errors associated with this CPU has exceeded
              acceptable levels.  Refer to http://sun.com/msg/SUN4U-8001-0J for
              more information.
Response    : The fault manager will attempt to remove the affected CPU from
              service.
Impact      : System performance may be affected.
Action      : Schedule a repair procedure to replace the affected CPU, the
              identity of which can be determined using fmdump -v -u
              .
