Well, I've played with it some, but it doesn't seem to see the MCE events that are in fact in /var/log/messages. [root@coyote root]# parsemce -i </var/log/messages This file contains no MCE dump [root@coyote root]# parsemce -f /var/log/messages This file contains no MCE dump
If I feed it the lines with the numbers it reports something about an invalid IP on restart.
[root@coyote root]# parsemce -e Bank 2: d40040000000017a -b Bank 2: -s d40040000000017a Status: (ba) Error IP valid Restart IP invalid.
The exact same output is obtained from the Bank 1 message & numbers too.
So I think I do not know how to use it. Or the severeity of the report isn't high enough. The logfile is currently about 1.27 megs but that doesn't seem to be a problem. I haven't seen any more of them since I turned off the nonfatal exceptions in .config. The logfile has several hundred K of samba errors from the plain 2.6.10 kernel.
