Explanation

When a PMD (Program Module Dump) is generated after a system restart, the system automatically writes a log entry to the Trace & Error log to document this event. This log serves as the primary diagnostic record for system anomalies and restarts. The entry is not written to the system log or availability log - only the Trace & Error log captures PMD-related information.

AI explanation

When a PMD (processor/program module dump) is generated following a restart, the event is recorded in both the trace log and the error log so that engineers can correlate the dump with surrounding system activity and diagnose the cause. It isn't simply logged to a generic system log or the separate availability log, which track different kinds of events.
