First of all ,I want to known whether I can ignore these errors on the
production server,and do these error may affect the system?

By the way,when I removed the "intel_iommu=on" from /etc/grub.conf,no
DMAR related errors occur

It's a strange thing,other three Dell R710 servers with the same bios
version v. 6.3.0, same kernel 2.6.32-279.14.1 on RHEL6u3(Centos 6u3)
,but these errors don't appear on these tree servers

Anyone have any idea for this ?

thanks
