With the Opteron Bank 4 value you gave, this decodes to:
Decoding MCE value as MCi_STATUS: 'b200000000070f0f'
Bit 63: Valid error
Bit 61: UNCORRECTED error
Bit 60: MCA Error Reporting Enabled
Bit 57: Process Context Corrupt
HyperTransport Link Number= 0
Extended Error Code = 0x7 - WatchDog error
BUS Error:
Processor(generic)
TimeOut(timed out)
Memory Transaction Type(generic)
Mem or IO(generic)
Cache Level(generic)
You had an Uncorrectable Error.
Since you did not post an address error, I assume that it did NOT report such. Therefore, because
of the WatchDog error, there might be an error between the CPU and memory. There is a hardware
problem definitely.
CPU-Mem Controller
Even bad memory DIMM
