MC_SMI_DIMM_ERROR_STATUS.
DIMM_ERROR_OVERFLOW_STATUS !=0

The register has one bit for each
DIMM error counter that exceeds
threshold.
This can happen at the same
time as any of the other SMI
events (Sparring complete,
redundancy lost in Mirror Mode)

Examine the associated
MC_COR_ECC_CNT_X register.
Determine the time since the
counter has been cleared. If a
spare channel exists, and the
threshold has been exceeded
faster than the expected, given
the background rate of
correctable errors, sparing
should be initiated. The counter
should be cleared to reset the
overflow bit.

MC_RAS_STATUS.REDUNDANCY_LOSS = 1

One channel of a mirrored pair
had an uncorrectable error has
been lost.

Raise an indication that a reboot
should be scheduled, possibly
replace the failed DIMM specified
in the
MC_SMI_DIMM_ERROR_STATUS
register.

MC_SSRSTATUS. CMPLT = 1

A sparring copy operation set up
by software has completed.

Advance to the next step in the
sparing flow.
