The Runtime Error Logging can be enabled or disabled. If enabled, the PCI Error Logging can be
enabled or disabled separately.

For correctable memory error logging, there are two additional parameters to prevent the
flooding of the event logs. The parameters are:

Error Threshold - Correctable memory errors are logged when the threshold is reached.
The first correctable memory error is always logged.

Error Logging Limit - The number of logged correctable memory errors for a DIMM is
limited. If the last entry in the log is SMBIOS: 'Correctable memory log disabled' and IPMI:
Memory event 'Correctable ECC logging limit reached'. No further correctable errors are
logged for this DIMM.

4.12.2 Error Simulation

For testing purposes, it is possible to inject errors.
In BIOS setup, enable "Inject Errors" in "Event Logs -> SMBIOS Event Log Settings".
