I cannot say for sure, but there might be a problem with memory. If you have root, you can try to run the command mentioned (/opt/resmon/bin/resdata -R 176357378 -r /system/events/memory/8 -n 176357391 -a) to get more details.

EMS is the HP-UX hardware monitoring system, that will tell you of failed system components (CPUs, memory, disks, fans, etc).
It's telling you there is a problem with the memory on the system.
As blowtorch says, run the resmon command it tells you to (or check root's mail, as the default action is to email root with the information automatically).
Then call HP for support.
