It doesn't mean status anything. It means that the server abended but
NetWare partitioned the memory/error, recovered and kept chugging along
(This functionality had been present since NW4.10 or 4.11). The number in
parans will/would be incremented as/if abends continue. Depending on what
was happening when the abend happened, what else is running on the server,
etc... you can be perfectly fine or have a system that will need to be
bounced. Most people feel better if the server gets bounced at the next
off-hours/maintenance timeslot.
