There are other console error messages related to watchdog timers. Do not confuse these messages with a watchdog timer crash. Be sure to check the meaning of these error messages with the help of the Error Message Decoder (registered customers only) . This tool gives you a detailed explanation of many error messages, and recommends actions to resolve them.
Consider this message:
%SYS-2-WATCHDOG: Process aborted on watchdog timeout,
process = [chars]
This message indicates that the specified process has run for too long, and the processor has not been relinquished. The system has shut down the indicated process. Based on your configuration, this can lead to a system crash. If the message occurs only once, you need not take any action. However, if it occurs again, you must treat it as a Process Watchdog Timeout, and take the necessary action.
