WHEA receives memory errors, corrected and uncorrected, from the platform and implements a Predictive Failure Analysis (PFA) algorithm based on corrected errors. WHEA attempts to remove from the available system memory the pages that have uncorrected errors, or are predicted to fail based on corrected errors. The removal decisions can be persisted across reboots. You can change the WHEA decision criteria against memory errors by tuning the WHEA memory policy. These policy elements can be set independently of each other. The new policy element values take effect immediately.</maml:para><maml:para>The following list specifies the WHEA memory policy elements:</maml:para><maml:para>DisableOffline: Disable decisions to take memory offline based on corrected or uncorrected errors.</maml:para><maml:para>DisablePFA: Disable predictive failure analysis (PFA) of memory pages based on the number of corrected errors reported in the page.</maml:para><maml:para>PersistMemoryOffline: Persist the decisions to take memory offline across reboots.
