Correctable Errors

This alarm indicates that a block of memory has failed or is failing and may need to be replaced. This condition is generally non-critical since the memory controller can correct the problem. However, this type of error indicates that a memory component is failing or has failed in the system issuing the alarm. The system continues to correct any errors it can.

Memory errors are corrected by the ECC memory subsystem when they occur. If you notice an increase in these errors, correct the problems as soon as possible. Further degradation of the memory components may occur, and then errors may no longer be correctable
