A faulty memory stick causes lots of "single bit error" warnings.
They're only warnings as memory stick is able to correct them using
either parity or ECC or whatever your particular memory is using (that's
your non-critical error), but the rate at which they're coming is too
hight for OMSA to cope with and it goes into Critical state. I'd say you
have to replace that DIMM as soon as possible.
